We provide new categorical perspectives on Jacobs notion of hypernormalisation of sub-probability distributions. In particular, we show that a suitable general framework for notions of hypernormalisation is that of a symmetric monoidal category endowed with a linear exponential monad---a notion arising in the categorical semantics of Girards linear logic. We show that Jacobs original notion of hypernormalisation arises in this way from the finitely supported probability measure monad on the category of sets, which can be seen as a linear exponential monad with respect to a monoidal structure on sets arising from a quantum-algebraic object which we term the Giry tricocycloid. We give many other examples of hypernormalisation arising from other linear exponential monads.

Monads can be interpreted as encoding formal expressions, or formal operations in the sense of universal algebra. We give a construction which formalizes the idea of evaluating an expression partially: for example, 2+3 can be obtained as a partial ev
aluation of 2+2+1. This construction can be given for any monad, and it is linked to the famous bar construction, of which it gives an operational interpretation: the bar construction induces a simplicial set, and its 1-cells are partial evaluations. We study the properties of partial evaluations for general monads. We prove that whenever the monad is weakly cartesian, partial evaluations can be composed via the usual Kan filler property of simplicial sets, of which we give an interpretation in terms of substitution of terms. In terms of rewritings, partial evaluations give an abstract reduction system which is reflexive, confluent, and transitive whenever the monad is weakly cartesian. For the case of probability monads, partial evaluations correspond to what probabilists call conditional expectation of random variables. This manuscript is part of a work in progress on a general rewriting interpretation of the bar construction.
We introduce a general construction on 2-monads. We develop background on maps of 2-monads, their left semi-algebras, and colimits in 2-category. Then, we introduce the construction of a colimit induced by a map of 2-monads, show that we obtain the s
tructure of a 2-monad and give a characterisation of its algebras. Finally, we apply the construction to the map of 2-monads between free symmetric monoidal and the free cartesian 2-monads and combine them into a linear-non-linear 2-monad.
We describe an abstract 2-categorical setting to study various notions of polynomial and analytic functors and monads.
We characterize the category of monads on $Set$ and the category of Lawvere theories that are equivalent to the category of regular equational theories.
An adjunction is a pair of functors related by a pair of natural transformations, and relating a pair of categories. It displays how a structure, or a concept, projects from each category to the other, and back. Adjunctions are the common denominator
of Galois connections, representation theories, spectra, and generalized quantifiers. We call an adjunction nuclear when its categories determine each other. We show that every adjunction can be resolved into a nuclear adjunction. The resolution is idempotent in a strict sense. The resulting nucleus displays the concept that was implicit in the original adjunction, just as the singular value decomposition of an adjoint pair of linear operators displays their canonical bases. [snip] In his seminal early work, Ross Street described an adjunction between monads and comonads in 2-categories. Lifting the nucleus construction, we show that the resulting Street monad on monads is strictly idempotent, and extracts the nucleus of a monad. A dual treatment achieves the same for comonads. This uncovers remarkably concrete applications behind a notable fragment of pure 2-category theory. The other way around, driven by the tasks and methods of machine learning and data analysis, the nucleus construction also seems to uncover remarkably pure and general mathematical content lurking behind the daily practices of network computation and data analysis.
