Monadic functors forgetful of (dis)inhibited actions
Abstract
We prove a number of results of the following common flavor: for a category of topological or uniform spaces with all manner of other properties of common interest (separation / completeness / compactness axioms), a group (or monoid) equipped with various types of topological structure (topologies, uniformities) and the corresponding category of appropriately compatible -flows in , the forgetful functor is monadic. In all cases of interest the domain category is also cocomplete, so that results on adjunction lifts along monadic functors apply to provide equivariant completion and/or compactification functors. This recovers, unifies and generalizes a number of such results in the literature due to de Vries, Mart'yanov and others on existence of equivariant compactifications / completions and cocompleteness of flow categories.
