Summary note

"We generalize Jones' planar algebras by internalising the notion to a pivotal braided tensor category C. To formulate the notion, the planar tangles are now equipped with additional 'anchor lines' which connect the inner circles to the outer circle. We call the resulting notion an anchored planar algebra. If we restrict to the case when C is the category of vector spaces, then we recover the usual notion of a planar algebra."-- Page v.
