Title: En algebras for m-categories

Abstract:
In this talk I will discuss how to generalize the axioms of braided monoidal structure, and more generally En algebras, for higher categories. In particular, by repeated use of the Eckmann-Hilton argument, we will derive a ''minimal'' set of axioms for braided monoidal structures for general m-categories.
