Does a natural transformation of functors induce a natural transformation between their righ...

Let $\mathcal{C}$ and $\mathcal{D}$ be two categories and $F$ and $G: \mathcal{C}\to \mathcal{D}$ be two functors. Suppose $F$ and $G$ have right adjoints $F^{\wedge}$ and $G^{\wedge}: \mathcal{D}\to …

Does a fully faithful functor always preserve limits and colimits?

I read on this n-lab page that a fully faithful functor $F: C\to D$ reflects all limits and colimits by the universal property. On the other hand, I think a fully faithful functor does not always pres …

Let $R$ be an unital ring and consider the category of left $R$-modules $R$-Mod. We call a full subcategory $\mathcal{W}\subset R$-Mod a localizing Serre subcategory if $\mathcal{W}$ is closed under i …

Can we define fundamental groups functorially for non-pointed path connected topological spa...

Let $\text{ppTop}$ denote the category of pointed and path connected topological spaces with morphisms base-preserve continuous maps. The fundamental group gives a functor $FG: \text{ppTop}\to \text{G …

Is the image of a idempotent morphism in $\mathcal{K}(\mathcal{A})$ defined in the naive way?

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an abelian category and $\mathcal{K}(\mathcal{A})$ be the homotopy category of chain complexes in $\mathcal{A}$. It is well-known that $\mathcal{K}(\mathcal{A})$ is idempotent com …

Is the inverse of the criterion of fully-faithfulness of derived tensor product also true?

Let $A$ and $B$ be differential graded algebras over a field $k$ and $D(A)$ and $D(B)$ be the derived categories of differential graded modules. Let $N$ be an $A$-$B$ bimodule. Then $(-)\otimes^{\mat …

Could $RHom(A,-)$ distinguish non-quasi-equivalent dg-categories?

One of the remarkable results in Toen's paper is the existence of internal homs of dg-categories. Actually for two dg-categories $A$ and $B$, there exists a dg-category $RHom(A,B)$ such that for any d …

Does the right adjoint of a comonad induce the following comodule map?

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category and $\mathcal{G}=(G,\delta, \epsilon)$ be a comonad on $\mathcal{C}$. Here $G: \mathcal{C}\to \mathcal{C}$ is a functor, $\delta: G\to G^2$ and $\epsilon: G\to id_{\mat …

Why do we need cofiltered condition on the index category in the definition of pro-categories?

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category. The pro-category pro-$\mathcal{C}$ is defined as (see this nLab page) follows: its objects are diagrams $F: D\to \mathcal{C}$ where $D$ is a small cofiltered category. …

Is there a categorification of topological K-theory?

For a compact Hausdorff topological space $X$, its K-theory $K^0(X)$ is defined to be the Grothendieck group of the isomorphism classes of finite dimensional vector spaces on $X$. For example $K^0(\te …

The multiplicative system in a symmetric monoidal category

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a symmetric monoidal category. In the 1973 paper "Note on monoidal localisation" by Brian Day, the multiplicative system of morphism in $\mathcal{C}$ has been discussed. See also …

Is there a compact generated triangulated category which does not have a compact generator?

Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a triangulated category which has arbitraty direct sums. An object $E\in \mathcal{T}$ is called compact if the functor Hom$(E,-)$ commutes with arbitrary direct sums. A triangula …

How to define the internal hom between presheaves valued in cotensored categories?

First let $\mathcal{V}$ be a closed symmetric monoidal category and $\mathcal{M}$ be a category enriched over $\mathcal{V}$. Moreover we assume $\mathcal{M}$ is cotensored, or powered over $\mathcal{ …
