Functorial -equivariant trace for rigid symmetric monoidal -categories
Functorial -equivariant trace for rigid symmetric monoidal -categories
Let be a rigid symmetric monoidal -category. For an object with an autoequivalence , the trace construction gives a morphism from the loop simplicial set to , where is the -equivariant simplicial set formed from invertible morphisms in and has the trivial -action. Let be the category of rigid symmetric monoidal -categories, and let
be the functors sending to and to , respectively.
Functorial trace conjecture. There exists a morphism
in such that, for every rigid symmetric monoidal -category , the induced morphism
is the trace map described above.
This conjecture gives a functorial -equivariant refinement of the trace map, which is the categorical input for the natural lift in the derived-geometric construction. The source says that its application to rigid symmetric monoidal -categories solves the preceding conjecture, so this conjecture is resolved.
