Biclosed Many bicategories are biclosed • B im : Rings, bimodules, linear maps • P rof : Categories, profunctors, natural transformations • V - P rof : V − with colimits preserved by ⊗ − biclosed − limits • S pan ( A ) : A with pullbacks and locally cartesian closed Robert Par´ e (Dalhousie University) Retrocells July 10, 2019 3 / 33
Scandal Good bicategories (all of the above) are the vertical part of naturally occurring double categories: R ing , C at , V - C at , S pan A But the internal homs ⊘ and � are not double functors! Robert Par´ e (Dalhousie University) Retrocells July 10, 2019 4 / 33

What strong means • The strong universal property is equivalent to the globular one plus the stability property • ( z • f ∗ ) ∼ y \ = ( y \ • z ) • f ∗ • If every horizontal arrow has a conjoint, then the strong universal property is equivalent to the globular one Robert Par´ e (Dalhousie University) Retrocells July 10, 2019 18 / 33
