Adjoints of fully faithful functors #

A left adjoint is fully faithful, if and only if the unit is an isomorphism (and similarly for right adjoints and the counit).

Future work #

The statements from Riehl 4.5.13 for adjoints which are either full, or faithful.

If the left adjoint is fully faithful, then the unit is an isomorphism.

If the unit of an adjunction is an isomorphism, then its inverse on the image of L is given by L whiskered with the counit.

If the unit is an isomorphism, bundle one has an isomorphism L ⋙ R ⋙ L ≅ L.

    If the counit of an adjunction is an isomorphism, then its inverse on the image of R is given by R whiskered with the unit.

    If the counit of an is an isomorphism, one has an isomorphism (R ⋙ L ⋙ R) ≅ R.
