Adjoint triples #
This file concerns adjoint triples F ⊣ G ⊣ H of functors F H : C ⥤ D, G : D ⥤ C. We first
prove that F is fully faithful iff H is, and then prove results about the two special cases
where G is fully faithful or F and H are.
Main results #
All results are about an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where adj₁ : F ⊣ G and adj₂ : G ⊣ H. We
bundle the adjunctions in a structure Triple F G H.

Equations
Instances For
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where G is fully faithful, whiskering the natural
transformation H ⟶ F with G yields the composition of the counit of the second adjunction with
the unit of the first adjunction.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where G is fully faithful, the images of the components of
the natural transformation H ⟶ F under G are the components of the composition of counit of the
second adjunction with the unit of the first adjunction.
The natural transformation H ⟶ F for an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H with G fully faithful
is also equal to the whiskered unit H ⟶ F ⋙ G ⋙ H of the first adjunction followed by the
inverse of the whiskered unit F ⟶ F ⋙ G ⋙ H of the second.
The natural transformation H ⟶ F for an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H with G fully faithful
is also equal to the inverse of the whiskered counit H ⋙ G ⋙ F ⟶ H of the first adjunction
followed by the whiskered counit H ⋙ G ⋙ F ⟶ F of the second.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where G is fully faithful, the natural transformation
F.op ⟶ H.op obtained from the dual adjoint triple H.op ⊣ G.op ⊣ F.op is dual to the natural
transformation H ⟶ F.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where G is fully faithful, the natural transformation
H ⟶ F is epic at X iff the image of the unit of the adjunction F ⊣ G under H is.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where G is fully faithful, the natural transformation
H ⟶ F is epic at X iff the image of the counit of the adjunction G ⊣ H under F is.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where G is fully faithful and H preserves epimorphisms
(which is for example the case if H has a further right adjoint), the components of the natural
transformation H ⟶ F are epic iff the respective components of the natural transformation
H ⋙ G ⟶ F ⋙ G obtained from the units and counits of the adjunctions are.
The natural transformation F ⟶ H that exists for every adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where F
and H are fully faithful, given here as the whiskered unit F ⟶ F ⋙ G ⋙ H of the second
adjunction followed by the inverse of the whiskered unit F ⋙ G ⋙ H ⟶ H of the first.

Instances For
The natural transformation F ⟶ H for an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H with F and H
fully faithful is also equal to the inverse of the whiskered counit H ⋙ G ⋙ F ⟶ F of the second
adjunction followed by the whiskered counit H ⋙ G ⋙ F ⟶ H of the first.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where F and H are fully faithful, the components of the
natural transformation F ⟶ H at G are precisely the components of the natural transformation
G ⋙ F ⟶ G ⋙ H obtained from the units and counits of the adjunctions.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where F and H are fully faithful, whiskering G with the
natural transformation F ⟶ H yields the composition of the counit of the first adjunction with
the unit of the second adjunction.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where F and H are fully faithful, the natural
transformation H.op ⟶ F.op obtained from the dual adjoint triple H.op ⊣ G.op ⊣ F.op is
dual to the natural transformation F ⟶ H.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where F and H are fully faithful, the natural
transformation F ⟶ H is monic at X iff the unit of the adjunction G ⊣ H is monic
at F.obj X.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where F and H are fully faithful, the natural
transformation F ⟶ H is monic at X iff the counit of the adjunction F ⊣ G is monic
at H.obj X.
For an adjoint triple F ⊣ G ⊣ H where F and H are fully faithful, the natural
transformation F ⟶ H is componentwise monic iff the natural transformation G ⋙ F ⟶ G ⋙ H
obtained from the units and counits of the adjunctions is.
Note that unlike epi_rightToLeft_app_iff, this equivalence does not make sense
on a per-object basis because the components of the two natural transformations are indexed by
different categories.
