The 0-sphere is unusual among spheres in that it is disconnected. |

Define a {\it pinched product} to be a map |
419 |
\[ |
|
420 |
\pi: E\to X |
|
421 |
\] |
|
344 | 422 |
such that $E$ is a $k{+}m$-ball, $X$ is a $k$-ball ($m\ge 1$), and $\pi$ is locally modeled |
343 | 423 |
on a standard iterated degeneracy map |
424 |
\[ |

$l \le m$, with $l$ depending on $x$. |
343 | 432 |
It is easy to see that a composition of pinched products is again a pinched product. |
433 |
A {\it sub pinched product} is a sub-$m$-ball $E'\sub E$ such that the restriction |
|
434 |
$\pi:E'\to \pi(E')$ is again a pinched product. |
|
435 |
A {union} of pinched products is a decomposition $E = \cup_i E_i$ |
|
436 |
such that each $E_i\sub E$ is a sub pinched product. |

The product axiom will give a map $\pi^*:\cC(X)\trans{}\to \cC(E)$ for each pinched product |
343 | 515 |
$\pi:E\to X$. |
344 | 516 |
Morphisms in the image of $\pi^*$ will be called product morphisms. |
343 | 517 |
Before stating the axiom, we illustrate it in our two motivating examples of $n$-categories. |
518 |
In the case where $\cC(X) = \{f: X\to T\}$, we define $\pi^*(f) = f\circ\pi$. |

Let $(b, a_1,\ldots,a_k)$ be a point of $\cE\cB_n^k \times A \times \cdots \times A \to A$. |
1448 |
The $i$-th embedding of $b$ together with $a_i$ determine an element of $\cC(B_i)$, |
|
1449 |
where $B_i$ denotes the $i$-th little ball. |
|
1450 |
Using composition of $n$-morphsims in $\cC$, and padding the spaces between the little balls with the |
|
1451 |
(essentially unique) identity $n$-morphism of $\cC$, we can construct a well-defined element |
|
1452 |
of $\cC(B^n) = A$. |

978 | 1462 |
(of either the ordinary or $A_\infty$ variety) to an invariant of manifolds, which we denote by $\colimit{\cC}$. |

there is a map $\pi^*:\cM(M)\to \cM(E)$. |
423 | 2101 |
These maps must satisfy the following conditions. |
2102 |
\begin{enumerate} |
|
2103 |
\item |
|
2104 |
If $\pi:E\to M$ and $\pi':E'\to M'$ are marked pinched products, and |
|
2105 |
if $f:M\to M'$ and $\tilde{f}:E \to E'$ are maps such that the diagram |
|
103 | 2106 |
\[ \xymatrix{ |
423 | 2107 |
E \ar[r]^{\tilde{f}} \ar[d]_{\pi} & E' \ar[d]^{\pi'} \\ |
103 | 2108 |
M \ar[r]^{f} & M' |
2109 |
} \] |
|
423 | 2110 |
commutes, then we have |
2111 |
\[ |
|
2112 |
\pi'^*\circ f = \tilde{f}\circ \pi^*. |
|
2113 |
\] |
|
2114 |
\item |
|
2115 |
Product morphisms are compatible with module composition and module action. |
|
2116 |
Let $\pi:E\to M$, $\pi_1:E_1\to M_1$, and $\pi_2:E_2\to M_2$ |
|
2117 |
be pinched products with $E = E_1\cup E_2$. |
|
2118 |
Let $a\in \cM(M)$, and let $a_i$ denote the restriction of $a$ to $M_i\sub M$. |
|
2119 |
Then |
|
2120 |
\[ |
|
2121 |
\pi^*(a) = \pi_1^*(a_1)\bullet \pi_2^*(a_2) . |
|
2122 |
\] |
|
2123 |
Similarly, if $\rho:D\to X$ is a pinched product of plain balls and |
|
2124 |
$E = D\cup E_1$, then |
|
2125 |
\[ |
|
2126 |
\pi^*(a) = \rho^*(a')\bullet \pi_1^*(a_1), |
|
2127 |
\] |
|
2128 |
where $a'$ is the restriction of $a$ to $D$. |
|
2129 |
\item |
|
2130 |
Product morphisms are associative. |
|
2131 |
If $\pi:E\to M$ and $\rho:D\to E$ are marked pinched products then |
|
2132 |
\[ |
|
2133 |
\rho^*\circ\pi^* = (\pi\circ\rho)^* . |
|
2134 |
\] |
|
2135 |
\item |
|
2136 |
Product morphisms are compatible with restriction. |
|
2137 |
If we have a commutative diagram |
|
2138 |
\[ \xymatrix{ |
|
2139 |
D \ar@{^(->}[r] \ar[d]_{\rho} & E \ar[d]^{\pi} \\ |
|
2140 |
Y \ar@{^(->}[r] & M |
|
2141 |
} \] |
|
2142 |
such that $\rho$ and $\pi$ are pinched products, then |
|
2143 |
\[ |
|
2144 |
\res_D\circ\pi^* = \rho^*\circ\res_Y . |
|
2145 |
\] |
|
2146 |
($Y$ could be either a marked or plain ball.) |

\begin{module-axiom}[Splittings] |
2183 |
Let $c\in \cM_k(M)$, with $1\le k < n$. |
|
2184 |
Let $s = \{X_i\}$ be a splitting of M (so $M = \cup_i X_i$, and each $X_i$ is either a marked ball or a plain ball). |
|
2185 |
Let $\Homeo_\bd(M)$ denote homeomorphisms of $M$ which restrict to the identity on $\bd M$. |
|
2186 |
\begin{itemize} |
|
2187 |
\item (Alternative 1) Consider the set of homeomorphisms $g:M\to M$ such that $c$ splits along $g(s)$. |
|
2188 |
Then this subset of $\Homeo(M)$ is open and dense. |
|
2189 |
Furthermore, if $s$ restricts to a splitting $\bd s$ of $\bd M$, and if $\bd c$ splits along $\bd s$, then the |
|
2190 |
intersection of the set of such homeomorphisms $g$ with $\Homeo_\bd(M)$ is open and dense in $\Homeo_\bd(M)$. |
|
2191 |
\item (Alternative 2) Then there exists an embedded cell complex $S_c \sub M$, called the string locus of $c$, |
|
2192 |
such that if the splitting $s$ is transverse to $S_c$ then $c$ splits along $s$. |
|

We define the |

category $\mbc$ of {\it marked $n$-balls with boundary conditions} as follows. |

Its objects are pairs $(M, c)$, where $M$ is a marked $n$-ball and $c \in \colimit\cM(\bd M)$ is the ``boundary condition". |
917 | 2199 |
The morphisms from $(M, c)$ to $(M', c')$, denoted $\Homeo(M; c \to M'; c')$, are |

homeomorphisms $f:M\to M'$ such that $f|_{\bd M}(c) = c'$. |

Our first task is to define an $n$-category $m$-sphere module, for $0\le m \le n-1$. |
205 | 2486 |
These will be defined in terms of certain classes of marked balls, very similarly |
2487 |
to the definition of $n$-category modules above. |
|
2488 |
(This, in turn, is very similar to our definition of $n$-category.) |

Define a $0$-marked $k$-ball, $1\le k \le n$, to be a pair $(X, M)$ homeomorphic to the standard |
327 | 2497 |
$(B^k, B^{k-1})$. |
209 | 2498 |
See Figure \ref{feb21a}. |
205 | 2499 |
Another way to say this is that $(X, M)$ is homeomorphic to $B^{k-1}\times([-1,1], \{0\})$. |

Part of the structure of an $n$-category 0-sphere module $\cM$ is captured by saying it is |
206 | 2531 |
a collection $\cD^{ab}$ of $n{-}1$-categories, indexed by pairs $(a, b)$ of objects (0-morphisms) |
2532 |
of $\cA$ and $\cB$. |
|
2533 |
Let $J$ be some standard 0-marked 1-ball (i.e.\ an interval with a marked point in its interior). |
|
2534 |
Given a $j$-ball $X$, $0\le j\le n-1$, we define |
|
2535 |
\[ |
|
2536 |
\cD(X) \deq \cM(X\times J) . |
|
2537 |
\] |
|
2538 |
The product is pinched over the boundary of $J$. |
|
327 | 2539 |
The set $\cD$ breaks into ``blocks" according to the restrictions to the pinched points of $X\times J$ |
209 | 2540 |
(see Figure \ref{feb21b}). |
206 | 2541 |
These restrictions are 0-morphisms $(a, b)$ of $\cA$ and $\cB$. |

The components of $Y\setminus K$ are labeled by $n$-categories, |

the edges of $K$ are labeled by 0-sphere modules, |

2682 |
and the 0-cells of $K$ are labeled by 1-sphere modules. |

Let $L_i$ denote the collection of $i{-}1$-sphere modules we have chosen. |
2701 |
(For convenience, we declare a $(-1)$-sphere module to be an $n$-category.) |

There is a wide range of possibilities. |

For each pair of $n$-categories in $L_0$, $L_1$ could contain no 0-sphere modules at all or |
207 | 2705 |
it could contain several. |
208 | 2706 |
The only requirement is that each $k$-sphere module be a module for a $k$-sphere $n{-}k$-category |
2707 |
constructed out of labels taken from $L_j$ for $j<k$. |

We now define $\cS(X)$, for $X$ a ball of dimension at most $n$, to be the set of all |
208 | 2715 |
cell-complexes $K$ embedded in $X$, with the codimension-$j$ parts of $(X, K)$ labeled |
2716 |
by elements of $L_j$. |
|
2717 |
As described above, we can think of each decorated $k$-ball as defining a $k{-}1$-sphere module |
|
2718 |
for the $n{-}k{+}1$-category associated to its decorated boundary. |
|
2719 |
Thus the $k$-morphisms of $\cS$ (for $k\le n$) can be thought |
|
2720 |
of as $n$-category $k{-}1$-sphere modules |
|
2721 |
(generalizations of bimodules). |

We define product $n{+}1$-morphisms to be identity maps of modules. |
101 | 3061 |
|
506 | 3062 |
To define (binary) composition of $n{+}1$-morphisms, choose the obvious common equator |
3063 |
then compose the module maps. |
|
559 | 3064 |
The proof that this composition rule is associative is similar to the proof of Lemma \ref{equator-lemma}. |

We end this subsection with some remarks about Morita equivalence of disk-like $n$-categories. |
806 | 3069 |
Recall that two 1-categories $\cC$ and $\cD$ are Morita equivalent if and only if they are equivalent |

Because of the strong duality enjoyed by disk-like $n$-categories, the data for such an equivalence lives only in |
806 | 3075 |
dimensions 1 and $n+1$ (the middle dimensions come along for free). |
3076 |
The $n{+}1$-dimensional part of the data must be invertible and satisfy |
|
3077 |
identities corresponding to Morse cancellations in $n$-manifolds. |
|
804 | 3078 |
We will treat this in detail for the $n=2$ case; the case for general $n$ is very similar. |

Let $\cC$ and $\cD$ be (unoriented) disk-like 2-categories. |
804 | 3081 |
Let $\cS$ denote the 3-category of 2-category sphere modules. |
806 | 3082 |
The 1-dimensional part of the data for a Morita equivalence between $\cC$ and $\cD$ is a 0-sphere module $\cM = {}_\cC\cM_\cD$ |
3083 |
(categorified bimodule) connecting $\cC$ and $\cD$. |
|
804 | 3084 |
Because of the full unoriented symmetry, this can also be thought of as a |
806 | 3085 |
0-sphere module ${}_\cD\cM_\cC$ connecting $\cD$ and $\cC$. |
804 | 3086 |
|
806 | 3087 |
We want $\cM$ to be an equivalence, so we need 2-morphisms in $\cS$ |
3088 |
between ${}_\cC\cM_\cD \otimes_\cD {}_\cD\cM_\cC$ and the identity 0-sphere module ${}_\cC\cC_\cC$, and similarly |
|
3089 |
with the roles of $\cC$ and $\cD$ reversed. |
|
804 | 3090 |
These 2-morphisms come for free, in the sense of not requiring additional data, since we can take them to be the labeled |
807 | 3091 |
cell complexes (cups and caps) in $B^2$ shown in Figure \ref{morita-fig-1}. |

We want the 2-morphisms from the previous paragraph to be equivalences, so we need 3-morphisms |
|
3176 |
between various compositions of these 2-morphisms and various identity 2-morphisms. |

shows the intertwiners we need. |
804 | 3256 |
Each decorated 2-ball in that figure determines a representation of the 1-category associated to the decorated circle |
3257 |
on the boundary. |
|
3258 |
This is the 3-dimensional part of the data for the Morita equivalence. |
|
807 | 3259 |
(Note that, by symmetry, the $c$ and $d$ arrows of Figure \ref{morita-fig-2} |
930 | 3260 |
are the same (up to rotation), as the $h$ and $g$ arrows.) |
804 | 3261 |
|
806 | 3262 |
In order for these 3-morphisms to be equivalences, |
3263 |
they must be invertible (i.e.\ $a=b\inv$, $c=d\inv$, $e=f\inv$) and in addition |
|
3264 |
they must satisfy identities corresponding to Morse cancellations on 2-manifolds. |
|
807 | 3265 |
These are illustrated in Figure \ref{morita-fig-3}. |

The modules corresponding to the leftmost and rightmost disks in the figure can be identified via the obvious isotopy. |

For general $n$, we start with an $n$-category 0-sphere module $\cM$ which is the data for the 1-dimensional |
804 | 3326 |
part of the Morita equivalence. |
3327 |
For $2\le k \le n$, the $k$-dimensional parts of the Morita equivalence are various decorated $k$-balls with submanifolds |
|
806 | 3328 |
labeled by $\cC$, $\cD$ and $\cM$; no additional data is needed for these parts. |

The $n{+}1$-dimensional part of the equivalence is given by certain intertwiners, and these intertwiners must |
806 | 3330 |
be invertible and satisfy |
3331 |
identities corresponding to Morse cancellations in $n$-manifolds. |
|
804 | 3332 |
|
806 | 3333 |
\noop{ |
3334 |
One way of thinking of these conditions is as follows. |
|
3335 |
Given a decorated $n{+}1$-manifold, with a codimension 1 submanifold labeled by $\cM$ and |
|
3336 |
codimension 0 submanifolds labeled by $\cC$ and $\cD$, we can make any local modification we like without |
|
3337 |
changing |

} |
|
804 | 3339 |
|
806 | 3340 |
If $\cC$ and $\cD$ are Morita equivalent $n$-categories, then it is easy to show that for any $n-j$-manifold |
3341 |
$Y$ the $j$-categories $\cC(Y)$ and $\cD(Y)$ are Morita equivalent. |
|
3342 |
When $j=0$ this means that the TQFT Hilbert spaces $\cC(Y)$ and $\cD(Y)$ are isomorphic |
|
3343 |
(if we are enriching over vector spaces). |

More specifically, the 1-dimensional part of the data is a 0-sphere module $\cM = {}_\cCM_\cD$ |
3350 |
(categorified bimodule) connecting $\cC$ and $\cD$. |
|
3351 |
From $\cM$ we can construct various $k$-sphere modules $N^k_{j,E}$ for $0 \le k \le n$, $0\le j \le k$, and $E = \cC$ or $\cD$. |
