Category Theory Seminar: Francesca Pratali (Utrecht) - On localization of ∞-operads
March 4, 2026 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Bayes 5.46Operads are combinatorial gadgets encoding categories of algebras. In modern homotopy theory, where categories are replaced by infinity-categories, strict operads are replaced by their homotopy-coherent version, infinity-operads. A natural way infinity-operads arise is through the process of localization, the process of freely inverting a class of morphisms in a homotopy-coherent way.
After recalling the above notions, in this talk I will prove that all infinity-operads arise as a localization of a strict one, and moreover that the localization functor establishes an equivalence of homotopy theories. These results generalize analogue ones for infinity-categories proven by Joyal and Stevenson, resp. Barwick and Kan. We will see that essential to prove such results is the dendroidal formalism for infinity-operads, based on a certain category of trees and its combinatorics. If time permits, I will also highlight some open questions. Part of this work is joint with K. Arakawa and V. Carmona.

AGQ CDT Conference
August 24, 2026 - August 28, 2026
School of Mathematics and Statistics, 132 University Pl, Glasgow G12 8TA, UKThe aim of the conference is to bring together researchers from geometric group theory, dynamics, and operator algebras to highlight and strengthen connections among our areas. The conference will include both research talks and introductory mini-courses, making it especially beneficial for early-career researchers. There will also be opportunities for lightning talks and poster presentations.
