Extensions in the theory of lax algebras

چکیده
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 these lax extensions, and present a symptomatic situation in which distinct monads yield isomorphic categories of lax algebras.

EXTENSIONS IN THE THEORY OF LAX ALGEBRAS Dedicated to Walter Tholen on the occasion of his 60th birthday

متن کاملOn lifting of biadjoints and lax algebras
Given a pseudomonad $mathcal{T} $ on a $2$-category $mathfrak{B} $, if a right biadjoint $mathfrak{A}tomathfrak{B} $ has a lifting to the pseudoalgebras $mathfrak{A}tomathsf{Ps}textrm{-}mathcal{T}textrm{-}mathsf{Alg} $ then this lifting is also right biadjoint provided that $mathfrak{A} $ has codescent objects. In this paper, we give general results on lifting of biadjoints. As a consequence, ...
متن کاملA 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 کاملUniversal Central Extension of Current Superalgebras
Representation as well as central extension are two of the most important concepts in the theory of Lie (super)algebras. Apart from the interest of mathematicians, the attention of physicist are also drawn to these two subjects because of the significant amount of their applications in Physics. In fact for physicists, the study of projective representations of Lie (super)algebras are very impo...
متن کاملBoundary Lax pairs from non-ultra local Poisson algebras
We consider non-ultra local linear Poisson algebras on a continuous line. Suitable combinations of representations of these algebras yield representations of novel generalized linear Poisson algebras or “boundary” extensions. They are parametrized by a “boundary” scalar matrix and depend in addition on the choice of an antiautomorphism. The new algebras are the classical-linear counterparts of ...
