Abstract

We study connections between additive and abelian 2-rep-
resentations of fiat 2-categories, describe combinatorics of 2-categories
in terms of multisemigroups and determine the annihilator of a cell 2-
representation. We also describe, in detail, examples of fiat 2-categories
associated to sl2-categorification in the sense of Chuang and Rouquier,
and 2-categorical analogues of Schur algebras.
