Reference for generalized ind-completions?

The recent series of papers by Lack and Tendas are good references for enriched accessible categories: Flat vs. filtered colimits in the enriched context (Lack–Tendas) On continuity of accessible fun …

Density with respect to a family of diagrams, versus a class of weights

In Theorem 5.19 of Kelly's Basic Concepts of Enriched Category Theory, it is proven that a fully faithful functor $K \colon \mathcal A \to \mathcal C$ is dense if and only if $\mathcal C$ is the closu …

Reference request: (co)limits in Eilenberg--Moore (V-)categories

The creation of weighted limits by the forgetful functor from the $\mathscr V$-category of algebras for an enriched (relative) monad is proven in Proposition 2.5 of Arkor–McDermott's Relative monadic …

Reference request for facts about bi(co)descent objects

This follows from Lemma 2.3 and Proposition 3.2 of Creurer–Marmolejo–Vitale's Beck's theorem for pseudo-monads, together with fact that the bicategorical Yoneda embedding preserves bilimits. Presumab …

Enrichment as extra structure on a category

An answer has already been accepted, but I believe it does not really answer the question as given, so here is another. You can define $\mathcal V$-enrichment as structure on a category $\mathcal C$, …

Examples of nonpointwise Kan extensions that "play a mathematical role"

Most Kan extensions arising in nature are pointwise, and this observation prompts Kelly to write [1]: Our present choice of nomenclature is based on our failure to find a single instance where a [non …

Enriched categories over a semi-monoidal category

Expanding upon my comment: categories without units are called semicategories. You define a notion of semicategory enriched in a semigroupal category, which is what you describe. The Yoneda lemma is s …

V-categories enriched in a monoidal V-category

In an email to the categories mailing list dated 21 August 2003, Street writes: Max reminded me of his old result (not in the LaJolla Proceedings, but known soon after) that a monoidal V-category is …

Cocompleteness of enriched categories of algebras

A useful result due to Linton is that for a cocomplete category $C$ and monad $T$ on $C$, if the category of algebras $C^T$ admits reflexive coequalisers, then it is cocomplete (see here for a sketch …

Large V-categories admitting the construction of V-presheaves

By a result of Foltz, and Freyd and Street, a category $C$ is essentially small (i.e. equivalent to a small category) if and only if both $C$ and $[C^{\text{op}}, \mathrm{Set}]$ are locally small. I a …

Universal property of the V-Mat construction

Internal categories and enriched categories can both be realised as monads in certain bicategories. If $\mathcal E$ is a category with pullbacks, then a monad in $\mathbf{Span}(\mathcal E)$ is a categ …

Free cocompletion of a 2-category under pseudo colimits, lax colimits, and colax colimits

Let $\mathscr K$ be a small 2-category. It follows from $\mathrm{Cat}$-enriched category theory that the free cocompletion of $\mathscr K$ under strict 2-colimits of 2-functors is given by the 2-categ …

A multicategory is a ... with one object?

I think it worth mentioning that precisely the notion described in the question is given in Cockett–Koslowski–Seely's Morphisms and modules for poly-bicategories, where it is called a multi-bicategory …
