Relaxed multicategory structure of a global category of rings and modules (Q5960414)

The author defines the structure of a relaxed multicategory for the category of modules over a cocommutative Hopf algebra, so that vertex algebras arise naturally as monoids. This is done by first defining a global category of rings and modules build up from the category of modules over a cocommutative Hopf algebra, and then by describing the singular maps, and finally by giving the relaxed multicategory structure using a collection of multimaps.
