Abstract

Given a monoidal adjunction, we show that the right adjoint induces a braided lax monoidal functor between the corresponding Drinfeld centers provided that certain natural transformations, called projection formula morphisms, are invertible. We investigate these induced functors on Drinfeld centers in more detail for the monoidal adjunction of restriction and (co-)induction along morphisms of Hopf algebras. The resulting functors are applied to examples related to affine algebraic groups, quantum groups at roots of unity, and Radford--Majid biproducts of Hopf algebras. Moreover, we use the projection formula morphisms to prove a characterization theorem for monoidal Kleisli adjunctions and a crude monoidal monadicity theorem. The functor on Drinfeld centers induced by the Eilenberg--Moore adjunction is given in terms of local modules over commutative central monoids.

Hochschild cohomology of the second kind: Koszul duality and Morita invariance

We define Hochschild cohomology of the second kind for differential graded (dg) or curved algebras as a derived functor in the twisted derived category. The Hochschild cohomology of the second kind of a curved or curved algebra $A$ is then equivalent to the classical Hochschild cohomology of the twisted derived dg category of $A$, which is often geometrically meaningful. Examples include the category of $\infty$-local systems on a topological space, the bounded derived category of a complex manifold and the category of matrix factorizations. We also show that Hochschild cohomology of the second kind is preserved under (nonconilpotent) Koszul duality and weak equivalences of curved algebras. The main technical ingredient is a new bimodule version of Koszul duality.

Localization of lax symmetric monoidal categories

In this note, we explain in some detail how one can fiberwise localize a (co)lax symmetric monoidal infinity-category. This construction was tacitly used in Section 5 of our recent paper "On the equivalence of the Lurie's infinity-operads and dendroidal infinity-operads". Version 2: A stronger version of the result is proven. Given a locally cocartesian fibration $f:X\to B$ and a collection of marked arrows $X^\circ\subset f^{-1}(B^{eq})$ in $X$ closed under locally cocartesian liftings, we prove that the localization $\mathcal{L}(X,X^\circ)\to B$ is also a locally cocartesian fibration whose fibers are localizations of the fibers of $f$. This result is applied to the description of localizations of lax symmetric monoidal categories.

Cocompactness and Presentability

We give a short proof that $κ$-cocompact objects in a presentable category are subterminal. As our main result, we extend this to the setting of presentable $\infty$-categories. A consequence is that an $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$ such that both $\mathcal{C}$ and $\mathcal{C}^\mathsf{op}$ are presentable is a small complete lattice, extending a classical theorem of Gabriel-Ulmer. Along the way, we prove a nilpotence result for phantom maps in general pointed presentable $\infty$-categories. Additionally, we show that a strengthening of our main result is equivalent to the existence of a proper class of measurable cardinals.
