Properties of comma categories relating to adjunctions #

This file shows that for a functor G : D ⥤ C the data of an initial object in each StructuredArrow category on G is equivalent to a left adjoint to G, as well as the dual.

Specifically, adjunctionOfStructuredArrowInitials gives the left adjoint assuming the appropriate initial objects exist, and mkInitialOfLeftAdjoint constructs the initial objects provided a left adjoint.

The duals are also shown.

Implementation: If each structured arrow category on G has an initial object, an equivalence which is helpful for constructing a left adjoint to G.

      If each structured arrow category on G has an initial object, construct a left adjoint to G. It is shown that it is a left adjoint in adjunctionOfStructuredArrowInitials.

              If each structured arrow category on G has an initial object, G is a right adjoint.

              Implementation: If each costructured arrow category on G has a terminal object, an equivalence which is helpful for constructing a right adjoint to G.
