It is not a standard notation, but it is clearly stated that they are functions of the forms $$ \begin{align*} \lceil\ \rceil \colon Ob(\mathcal D) \to [\mathcal C,\mathcal E]\\ \lfloor \ \rfloor \colon Ob(\mathcal C) \to [\mathcal D, \mathcal E] \end{align*} $$ satisfying the equation $$ \lceil D\rceil(C) = \lfloor C \rfloor(D)\ . $$
From the nature of the equation I suppose that there is a bifunctor lurking around, but I cannot be sure with the limited amount of details provided.
