Abstract:
We build upon Mac Laneโs definition of a tensor category to introduce the concept of a product system that takes values in a tensor groupoid $\mathcal G$. We show that the existing notions of product systems fit into our categorical framework, as do the $k$-graphs of Kumjian and Pask. We then specialize to product systems over right-angled Artin semigroups; these are semigroups that interpolate between free semigroups and free abelian semigroups. For such a semigroup we characterize all product systems which take values in a given tensor groupoid $\mathcal G$. In particular, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions under which a collection of $k$ $1$-graphs form the coordinate graphs of a $k$-graph.References
