This paper describes several cases of adjunction in the homomorphism preorder of relational structures. We say that two functors $\Lambda$ and $\Gamma$ between thin categories of relational structures are adjoint if for all structures…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ and $\mathfrak{h}$ be two Lie algebras with $\mathfrak{h}$ finite dimensional and consider ${\mathcal A} = {\mathcal A} (\mathfrak{h}, \, \mathfrak{g})$ to be the corresponding universal algebra as introduced in…
In this paper we introduce and investigate the notion of semiseparable functor. One of its first features is that it allows a novel description of separable and naturally full functors in terms of faithful and full functors, respectively.…
Given a right adjoint functor between triangulated categories and an object in the target category, we show that the unit map of adjunction on that object is a split monomorphism if and only if the object belongs to the additive closure of…
Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring, I and J ideals of R and M a finitely generated R-module. Let F be a covariant R-linear functor from the category of finitely generated R-modules to itself. We first show that if F is coherent, then…
We define $A_{\infty}$-structures -- algebras, coalgebras, modules, and comodules -- in an arbitrary monoidal DG category or bicategory by rewriting their definitions in terms of unbounded twisted complexes. We develop new notions of strong…
For each pair of lax-idempotent pseudomonads $R$ and $I$, for which $I$ is locally fully faithful and $R$ distributes over $I$, we establish an adjoint functor theorem, relating $R$-cocontinuity to adjointness relative to $I$. This provides…
We investigate the problem when the tensor functor by a bimodule yields a singular equivalence. It turns out that this problem is equivalent to the one when the Hom functor given by the same bimodule induces a triangle equivalence between…
A non-unital algebra in a closed monoidal category is called self-induced if the multiplication induces an isomorphism between A\otimes_A A and A. For such an algebra, we define smoothening and roughening functors that retract the category…
Let $G$ be a $p$-adic Lie group with reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Denote by $D(G)$ the locally analytic distribution algebra of $G$. Orlik-Strauch and Agrawal-Strauch have studied certain exact functors defined on various…
Associated to a simple root of a finite-dimensional complex semisimple Lie algebra, there are several endofunctors (defined by Arkhipov, Enright, Frenkel, Irving, Jantzen, Joseph, Mathieu, Vogan and Zuckerman) on the BGG category…
Let X_1 and X_2 be schemes of finite type over a field of characteristic 0. Let Q be an object in the category D-mod(X_1\times X_2) and consider the functor F:D-mod(X_1)->Dmod(X_2) defined by Q. Assume that F admits a right adjoint also…
We give a new criterion guaranteeing existence of model structures left-induced along a functor admitting both adjoints. This works under the hypothesis that the functor induces idempotent adjunctions at the homotopy category level. As an…
Modular functors are traditionally defined as systems of projective representations of mapping class groups of surfaces that are compatible with gluing. They can formally be described as modular algebras over central extensions of the…
Let $R$ be an associative ring with unit. This paper deals with various aspects of the category of functors of $\mathcal R$-modules; that is, the category of additive and covariant functors from the category of R-modules to the category of…
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a finite tensor category with simple unit object, let $\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C})$ denote its monoidal center, and let $L$ and $R$ be a left adjoint and a right adjoint of the forgetful functor $U:…
Let $G$ be a group. A ring $R$ is called a graded ring (or $G$-graded ring) if there exist additive subgroups $R_{\alpha }$ of $R$ indexed by the elements $\alpha \in G$ such that $R=\bigoplus_{\alpha \in G}R_{\alpha }$ and $R_{\alpha…
We know that the model theory of modules leads to a way of obtaining definable categories of modules over a ring $R$ as the kernels of certain functors $(R\textbf{-Mod})^{\text{op}}\to\textbf{Ab}$ rather than of functors…
In the theory of operads we consider functors of generalized symmetric powers defined by sums of coinvariant modules under actions of symmetric groups. One observes classically that the construction of symmetric functors provides an…
We study polynomial comonads and polynomial bicomodules. Polynomial comonads amount to categories. Polynomial bicomodules between categories amount to parametric right adjoint functors between corresponding copresheaf categories. These may…
