Algebraic structures in which the property of commutativity is substituted by the mediality property are introduced. We consider (associative) graded algebras and instead of almost commutativity (generalized commutativity or ε-commutativity), we introduce almost mediality (“commutativity-to-mediality” ansatz). Higher graded twisted products and “deforming” brackets (being the medial analog of Lie brackets) are defined. Toyoda’s theorem which connects (universal) medial algebras with abelian algebras is proven for the almost medial graded algebras introduced here. In a similar way we generalize tensor categories and braided tensor categories. A polyadic (non-strict) tensor category has an n-ary tensor product as an additional multiplication with n−1 associators of the arity 2n−1 satisfying a n2+1-gon relation, which is a polyadic analog of the pentagon axiom. Polyadic monoidal categories may contain several unit objects, and it is also possible that all objects are units. A new kind of polyadic categories (called groupal) is defined: they are close to monoidal categories but may not contain units: instead the querfunctor and (natural) functorial isomorphisms, the quertors, are considered (by analogy with the querelements in n-ary groups). The arity-nonreducible n-ary braiding is introduced and the equation for it is derived, which for n=2 coincides with the Yang–Baxter equation. Then, analogously to the first part of the paper, we introduce “medialing” instead of braiding and construct “medialed” polyadic tensor categories.

Abstract We associate to each Temperley–Lieb–Jones C*-tensor category $${\mathcal {T}}{\mathcal {L}}{\mathcal {J}}(\delta )$$ T L J ( δ ) with parameter $$\delta $$ δ in the discrete range $$\{2\cos (\pi /(k+2)):\,k=1,2,\ldots \}\cup \{2\}$$ { 2 cos ( π / ( k + 2 ) ) : k = 1 , 2 , … } ∪ { 2 } a certain C*-algebra $${\mathcal {B}}$$ B of compact operators. We use the unitary braiding on $${\mathcal {T}}{\mathcal {L}}{\mathcal {J}}(\delta )$$ T L J ( δ ) to equip the category $$\mathrm {Mod}_{{\mathcal {B}}}$$ Mod B of (right) Hilbert $${\mathcal {B}}$$ B -modules with the structure of a braided C*-tensor category. We show that $${\mathcal {T}}{\mathcal {L}}{\mathcal {J}}(\delta )$$ T L J ( δ ) is equivalent, as a braided C*-tensor category, to the full subcategory $$\mathrm {Mod}_{{\mathcal {B}}}^f$$ Mod B f of $$\mathrm {Mod}_{{\mathcal {B}}}$$ Mod B whose objects are those modules which admit a finite orthonormal basis. Finally, we indicate how these considerations generalize to arbitrary finitely generated rigid braided C*-tensor categories.

Any (co)ring R is an endofunctor with (co)multiplication on the category of abelian groups. These notions were generalized to monads and comonads on arbitrary categories. Starting around 1970 with papers by Beck, Barr and others a rich theory of the interplay between such endofunctors was elaborated based on distributive laws between them and Applegate's lifting theorem of functors between categories to related (co)module categories. Curiously enough some of these results were not noticed by researchers in module theory and thus notions like entwining structures and smash products between algebras and coalgebras were introduced (in the nineties) without being aware that these are special cases of the more general theory. The purpose of this survey is to explain several of these notions and recent results from general category theory in the language of elementary module theory focusing on functors between module categories given by tensoring with a bimodule. This provides a simple and systematic approach to smash products, wreath products, corings and rings over corings (C-rings). We also highlight the relevance of the Yang–Baxter equation for the structures on the threefold tensor product of algebras or coalgebras (see 3.6).

Let [Formula: see text] be a Hom-bialgebra. In this paper, we firstly introduce the notion of Hom-L-R smash coproduct [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a Hom-coalgebra. Then for a Hom-algebra and Hom-coalgebra [Formula: see text], we introduce the notion of Hom-L-R-admissible pair [Formula: see text]. We prove that [Formula: see text] becomes a Hom-bialgebra under Hom-L-R smash product and Hom-L-R smash coproduct. Next, we will introduce a prebraided monoidal category [Formula: see text] of Hom–Yetter–Drinfel’d–Long bimodules and show that Hom-L-R-admissible pair [Formula: see text] actually corresponds to a bialgebra in the category [Formula: see text], when [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are involutions. Finally, we prove that when [Formula: see text] is finite dimensional Hom-Hopf algebra, [Formula: see text] is isomorphic to the Yetter–Drinfel’d category [Formula: see text] as braid monoidal categories where [Formula: see text] is the tensor product Hom–Hopf algebra.

We discuss the structure of the Motzkin algebra [Formula: see text] by introducing a sequence of idempotents and the basic construction. We show that [Formula: see text] admits a factor trace if and only if [Formula: see text] and the higher commutants of these factors depend on [Formula: see text]. Then a family of irreducible bimodules over these factors is constructed. A tensor category with [Formula: see text] fusion rule is obtained from these bimodules.

We give a characterization of finite pointed tensor categories obtained as de-equivariantizations of the category of corepresentations of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras with abelian group of group-like elements only in terms of the (cohomology class of the) associator of the pointed part. As an application we prove that every coradically graded pointed finite braided tensor category is a de-equivariantization of the category of corepresentations of a finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras with abelian group of group-like elements.
