Hopf categories associated to comonoidal functors

Category Theory 2025-07-01 v1 Quantum Algebra

Abstract

We provide an explicit construction of Hopf categories associated to comonoidal functors, generalizing \v{S}evera's construction of Hopf monoids through M-adapted functors. We discuss the example of the Hopf category whose underlying class is the set of twists of a Lie bialgebra. Finally, we apply the result to the setting of deformed categories.
