Coherence for adjunctions in a $4$-category

Category Theory 2024-11-01 v3 Quantum Algebra

Abstract

We give a definition of a coherent adjunction in a 44-category consisting of a finite list of kk-morphisms for k4k\leq 4, plus equations beetween 44-morphisms. We prove that the restriction map from the space of coherent adjunctions in a 44-category to the space of 11-morphisms which admit an adjoint is a trivial fibration. We prove that other restriction maps related to fixing parts of the data of an adjunction are also trivial fibrations. We give a conjectural description of a coherent adjunction in an nn-category.
