Abstract: This week, we'll talk about monoidal functors, the monoidal analogue of additive functors between additive categories. We'll discuss examples and applications, including the notion of group actions on monoidal categories. Time permitting, we'll also learn about Mac Lane's coherence theorem, which states that every monoidal category is monoidally equivalent to a strict monoidal category.
