Category Theory in Context: Triple of adjoint functors give rise to canonical adjunction.

122 Views Asked by At

I'm having trouble with getting started with this problem in Category Theory in Context, so any help would be appreciated.

Problem:

enter image description here

So the set up is we have isomorphism natural in both $c$ and $d$ such that $D(Uc, d) \cong C(c, Ld)$ and $C(Rd, c) \cong D(d, Uc)$ for all $c \in C$ and $d \in D$.

We want to show there is isomorphism that is natural such that $C(LUc, c') \cong C(c, RUc')$.

I'm having a hard time getting started with the proof, so if anyone could help me get started, I would appreciate that very much. Thanks!

Alright, I was just being stupid here.

What we have instead is

$C(Ld,c) \cong D(d, UC)$ and $D(Uc, d) \cong C(c, Rd)$.

Then note $C(LUc, c') \cong D(Uc, Uc')$ naturally, and $D(Uc, Uc') \cong C(c, RUc')$ naturally.
