We identify additional structure on a conservative lax monoidal functor from a closed monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$ to a Grothendieck-Verdier category $\mathcal{D}$, such that the Grothendieck-Verdier structure of $\mathcal{D}$ lifts to…

In (Borceux-Janelidze 2001) they prove a Categorical Galois Theorem for ordinary categories, and establish the main result of (Joyal-Tierney 1984), along with the classical Galois theory of Rings, as instances of this more general result.…

Motivated by the Grothendieck construction, we study the functorialities of the comma construction for strict $\omega$-categories. To state the most general functorialities, we use the language of Gray $\omega$-categories, that is,…

We initiate the study of derived functors in the setting of extriangulated categories. By using coends, we adapt Yoneda's theory of higher extensions to this framework. We show that, when there are enough projectives or enough injectives,…

There are two dual equivalences between the $\infty$-category of $\mathcal{O}$-monoidal $\infty$-categories with right adjoint lax $\mathcal{O}$-monoidal functors and that with left adjoint oplax $\mathcal{O}$-monoidal functors, where…

We introduce a category-theoreticabstraction of a syntax with auxiliary functions, called an admissiblemonad morphism. Relying on an abstract form of structural recursion,we then design generic tools to construct admissible monad…

We prove an unstraightening result for lax transformations between functors from an arbitrary $(\infty,2)$-category to that of $(\infty,2)$-categories. We apply this to study partially (op)lax and weighted (co)limits, giving fibrational…

Let $\Bbbk$ be a commutative ring and $I$ a category. As a generalization of a $\Bbbk$-category with a (pseudo) action of a group we consider a family of $\Bbbk$-categories with a (pseudo, lax, or oplax) action of $I$, namely an oplax…

There is a well-known correspondence between coherent theories (and their interpretations) and coherent categories (resp. functors), hence the (2,1)-category $\mathbf{Coh_{\sim}}$ (of small coherent categories, coherent functors and all…

For any algebra morphism in a monoidal category, we provide sufficient conditions (which are also necessary if the unit is a left tensor generator) for the attached induction functor being semiseparable. Under mild assumptions, we prove…

Originally introduced in the context of the algebraic approach to term graph rewriting, the notion of gs-monoidal category has surfaced a few times under different monikers in the last decades. They can be thought of as symmetric monoidal…

Adjoint functor theorems give necessary and sufficient conditions for a functor to admit an adjoint. In this paper we prove general adjoint functor theorems for functors between $\infty$-categories. One of our main results is an…

This paper concerns the problem of lifting a KZ doctrine P to the 2-category of pseudo T-algebras for some pseudomonad T. Here we show that this problem is equivalent to giving a pseudo-distributive law (meaning that the lifted pseudomonad…

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…

In the first part of this paper we study fibrations of $(\infty,2)$-categories. We give a simple characterization of such fibrations in terms of a certain square being a pullback, and apply this to show that in some cases…

It is known that the construction of the frame of ideals from a distributive lattice induces a monad whose algebras are precisely the frames and frame homomorphisms. Using the Fakir construction of an idempotent approximation of a monad, we…
