We present a logical and algebraic description of right adjoint functors between generalized quasi-varieties, inspired by the work of McKenzie on category equivalence. This result is achieved by developing a correspondence between the…
We investigate the existence of left and right adjoints to the restriction functor in three categories of continuous representations of a topological group: discrete, linear complete and compact.
Given an open-closed decomposition of the stratifying poset, we construct a new semi-orthogonal decomposition of the $\infty$-category of constructible sheaves on a stratified space admitting an exit-path $\infty$-category. From this we…
As left adjoint to the dual algebra functor, Sweedler's finite dual construction is an important tool in the theory of Hopf algebras over a field. We show in this note that the left adjoint to the dual algebra functor, which exists over…
We show that any functor between $\infty$-categories can be straightened. More precisely, we show that for any $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$, there is an equivalence between the $\infty$-category $(\mathrm{Cat}_{\infty})_{/\mathcal{C}}$…
We provide bicategorical analogs of several aspects of the notion of geometry in the sense of the theory of spectrum. We first introduce a notion of local right biadjoint, and prove it to be equivalent to a notion of bistable pseudofunctor,…
In this note we present an $\infty$-categorical framework for descent along adjunctions and a general formula for counting conjugates up to equivalence which unifies several known formulae from different fields.
Category theory has foundational importance because it provides conceptual lenses to characterize what is important in mathematics. Originally the main lenses were universal mapping properties and natural transformations. In recent decades,…
Given a pair of adjoint functors between two arbitrary categories it induces mutually inverse equivalences between the full subcategories of the initial ones, consisting of objects for which the arrows of adjunction are isomorphisms. We…
We study topological properties of the correspondence of prime spectra associated to a noncommutative ring homomorphism R -> S. Our main result provides criteria for the adjointness of certain functors between the categories of Zariski…
From every pair of adjoint functors it is possible to produce a (possibly trivial) equivalence of categories by restricting to the subcategories where the unit and counit are isomorphisms. If we do this for the adjunction between effect…
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…
This paper introduces the notion of complete connectedness of a Grothendieck topos, defined as the existence of a left adjoint to a left adjoint to a left adjoint to the global sections functor, and provides many examples. Typical examples…
We construct a left adjoint $\mathcal{H}^\text{st}\colon \mathbf{Ex}_{\infty} \rightarrow \mathbf{St}_{\infty}$ to the inclusion $\mathbf{St}_{\infty} \hookrightarrow \mathbf{Ex}_{\infty}$ of the $\infty$-category of stable…
This paper has been withdrawn and replaced by arXiv:1309.5035. In this paper we describe some examples of so called spherical functors between triangulated categories, which generalize the notion of a spherical object. We also give…
The coefficient categories of six functor formalisms are often locally rigid, and when this is the case, the exceptional pushforward and pullback adjunctions may be defined formally. In this short note it is shown that for f a proper map…
We prove coherence theorems for bicategories, pseudofunctors and pseudonatural transformations. These theorems boil down to proving the coherence of some free $(4,2)$-categories. In the case of bicategories and pseudofunctors, existing…
Let B be an extriangulated category with enough projectives and enough injectives. Let C be a fully rigid subcategory of B which admits a twin cotorsion pair ((C,K),(K,D)). The quotient category B/K is abelian, we assume that it is…
The behaviour of limits of weak morphisms in 2-dimensional universal algebra is not 2-categorical in that, to fully express the behaviour that occurs, one needs to be able to quantify over strict morphisms amongst the weaker kinds.…
There appeared not long ago a Reduction Formula for derived Hochschild cohomology, that has been useful e.g., in the study of Gorenstein maps and of rigidity w.r.t. semidualizing complexes. The formula involves the relative dualizing…
