Jul 31, 2016 at 6:59 comment added Mike Shulman Right, that was exactly my point: having a monad that is "also a comonad" is not sufficient to have a "Frobenius monad", because there is an extra condition. So you can't say "and hence".
Jul 30, 2016 at 9:47 comment added მამუკა ჯიბლაძე @MikeShulman The part I don't understand is "and hence". Is just a Frobenius monad structure on a list-like endofunctor meant, or something more (or less)?
Jul 26, 2016 at 3:28 comment added Mike Shulman A "Frobenius monad" and a "bimonad" would be two different possible ways of combining a monad and comonad structure, satisfying axioms analogous to those of a Frobenius algebra and a bialgebra. (In particular, having a monad and comonad doesn't immediately imply either one; there are extra compatibility axioms to check, different ones in each case.) So I expect that Tom knew what he was talking about when choosing one terminology rather than the other.
Jul 25, 2016 at 19:14 comment added მამუკა ჯიბლაძე Tom Leinster in an answer to your question mathoverflow.net/a/237967/41291 has described structures of monad and comonad on $L^+$ (nonempty lists). He however calls this bimonad rather than Frobenius monad.
