Inspired by recent work of Peter O'Sullivan (arXiv:2012.15703), we give a condition under which a faithful monoidal functor between abelian $\otimes$-categories is exact.

We construct a monoidal version of Lurie's un/straightening equivalence. In more detail, for any symmetric monoidal $\infty$-category $\mathbf C$, we endow the $\infty$-category of coCartesian fibrations over $\mathbf C$ with a (naturally…

We apply the notion of relative adjoint functor to generalise closed monoidal categories. We define representations in such categories and give their relation with left actions of monoids. The translation of these representations under lax…

Liftable pairs of adjoint functors between braided monoidal categories in the sense of \cite{GV-OnTheDuality} provide auto-adjunctions between the associated categories of bialgebras. Motivated by finding interesting examples of such pairs,…

We define the notion of exact completion with respect to an existential elementary doctrine. We observe that the forgetful functor from the 2-category exact categories to existential elementary doctrines has a left biadjoint that can be…

We show how monoidal adjunctions can be used to prove the existence of monoidal abelian envelopes of pseudo-tensor categories, in particular, those admitting a combinatorial description with certain properties. We derive concrete general…

For our purposes, two functors {\Lambda} and {\Gamma} are said to be respectively left and right adjoints of each other if for any digraphs G and H, there exists a homomorphism of {\Lambda}(G) to H if and only if there exists a homomorphism…

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…

We prove that the homotopy theory of monoidal relative categories is equivalent to that of monoidal $\infty$-categories, and likewise in the symmetric monoidal setting. As an application, we give a concise and complete proof of the fact…

In this paper we prove the equivalence of two symmetric monoidal $\infty$-categories of $\infty$-operads, the one defined in Lurie's book on Higher Algebra and the one based on dendroidal spaces. V.2 Some corrections made and exposition…

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…

We show that a reflective/coreflective pair of full subcategories satisfies a "maximal-normal"-type equivalence if and only if it is an associated pair in the sense of Kelly and Lawvere.

We investigate the connection between left exact $\infty$-functors between finitely complete quasicategories and exact functors between fibration categories, describing a procedure to approximate flat $\infty$-functors of the former type by…

We demonstrate that companionships and conjunctions in double $\infty$-categories -- and more generally, in double Segal spaces -- extend to functors out of the free-living companionship and conjunction respectively. Specifically, we prove…

For every adjunction of stable $\infty$-categories -- or more generally, in any locally stable $(\infty,2)$-category -- we give a simple procedure for inverting the twist and cotwist functors associated to this adjunction. As a consequence,…

Symmetric monoidal closed categories may be related to one another not only by the functors between them but also by enrichment of one in another, and it was known to G. M. Kelly in the 1960s that there is a very close connection between…
