Extensions of Functors From Set to V-cat
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that for a commutative quantale V every functor Set −→ V -cat has an enriched leftKan extension. As a consequence, coalgebras over Set are subsumed by coalgebras over V -cat. Moreover, one can build functors on V -cat by equipping Set-functors with a metric. 1998 ACM Subject Classification F.4.1 Mathematical Logic

A cottage industry of lax extensions
In this work, we describe an adjunction between the comma category of Set-based monads under the V -powerset monad and the category of associative lax extensions of Set-based monads to the category of V -relations. In the process, we give a general construction of the Kleisli extension of a monad to the category of V-relations.
متن کاملFunctors Induced by Cauchy Extension of C$^ast$-algebras
In this paper, we give three functors $mathfrak{P}$, $[cdot]_K$ and $mathfrak{F}$ on the category of C$^ast$-algebras. The functor $mathfrak{P}$ assigns to each C$^ast$-algebra $mathcal{A}$ a pre-C$^ast$-algebra $mathfrak{P}(mathcal{A})$ with completion $[mathcal{A}]_K$. The functor $[cdot]_K$ assigns to each C$^ast$-algebra $mathcal{A}$ the Cauchy extension $[mathcal{A}]_K$ of $mathcal{A}$ by ...
متن کاملExtensions in the theory of lax algebras
Recent investigations of lax algebras—in generalization of Barr’s relational algebras—make an essential use of lax extensions of monad functors on Set to the category Rel(V) of sets and V-relations (where V is a unital quantale). For a given monad there may be many such lax extensions, and different constructions appear in the literature. The aim of this article is to shed a unifying light on t...
متن کاملOn the Monadicity of Categories with Chosen Colimits
There is a 2-category J -Colim of small categories equipped with a choice of colimit for each diagram whose domain J lies in a given small class J of small categories, functors strictly preserving such colimits, and natural transformations. The evident forgetful 2-functor from J -Colim to the 2-category Cat of small categories is known to be monadic. We extend this result by considering not jus...
