Frobenius Functors of the second kind

Abstract

A pair of adjoint functors (F,G)(F,G) is called a Frobenius pair of the second type if GG is a left adjoint of βFα\beta F\alpha for some category equivalences α\alpha and β\beta. Frobenius ring extensions of the second kind provide examples of Frobenius pairs of the second kind. We study Frobenius pairs of the second kind between categories of modules, comodules, and comodules over a coring. We also show that a finitely generated projective Hopf algebra over a commutative ring is always a Frobenius extension of the second kind, and prove that the integral spaces of the Hopf algebra and its dual are isomorphic.
