STAR-AUTONOMOUS FUNCTOR CATEGORIES
J.M. EGGER
Abstract. We construct a star-autonomous structure on the functor category KJ ,
where J is small, K is small-complete, and both are star-autonomous. A weaker result,
that KJ admits a linear distributive structure, is also shown under weaker hypotheses.
The latter leads to a deeper understanding of the notion of linear functor.
1. Introduction
This paper is, to a large extent, a continuation of [6]. In that paper it is shown inter alia
that the eighteen coherence axioms required of a linear functor J −→ K can, in the case
J = 1, be neatly summarised using such familiar notions as (co)actions of (co)monoids,
and (co)equivariance. Briefly, linear functors 1 −→ K are in bijective correspondence with
cyclic nuclear monoids in K. That observation brought fresh intuition to the concept of
linear functor: just as a monoidal functor can be thought of as a generalised monoid, so
a linear functor should be thought of as a generalised cyclic nuclear monoid.
But there exists a partial converse to the idea that a monoidal functor is a generalised
monoid: under certain circumstances it is possible to endow a functor category KJ with
a convolution tensor product [5]; in these cases, monoidal functors J −→ K may be
regarded as monoids in KJ . Here we show that, under comparable circumstances, it is
possible to endow KJ with a linear distributive structure so that linear functors J −→ K
may be regarded as cyclic nuclear monoids in KJ .
Moreover, we show that if J and K also admit duals—i.e., if they are star-autonomous
categories—then so is KJ . In fact, the formulae describing the (right- and left-) duals of an
object X of KJ are very intuitive: they are its two “de Morgan duals”, X ∗ (p) = (X(∗p))∗
and ∗X(p) = ∗(X(p∗ )).
While this paper follows organically from its predecessor, the real impetus for continuing this vein of research came from collaboration with David Kruml [7]. In order to
show that Kruml’s notion of Girard couple of quantales (which was defined in response to
concrete considerations arising in quantale theory) is an instance of a very general concept
in [6], the author was led to construct a star-autonomous structure on Sup→ . This having
been achieved, with the aid of the usual star-autonomous structures on Sup and →, it
was natural to try to understand the full extent of the latter construction.

1.1.1. Throughout this paper our focus will be on functors J −→ K where J is small
and K large. In this context, it is useful to think of J as a category of indices; we shall
therefore write X• in place of the more usual X(•).
1.1.2. We shall assume the reader familiar with the general theory of linear distributive
categories and linear functors [3, 4]. We recall that, just as a boolean algebra can be
(equivalently) defined either as a Heyting algebra whose negation operation is involutive
or as a distributive lattice in which each element has a complement, so a star-autonomous
category can be (essentially equivalently) defined either as a monoidal closed category
equipped with a dualising object or as a linear distributive category in which every object
has a left dual and a right dual. In the present paper, we shall (for reasons explained in
Section 3) take the latter approach; but we shall insist that duals be functorially specified,
as occurs tautologically in the former approach.
1.1.3. We do not assume symmetry; in this context, it is convenient to take (co)closed
to mean both left- and right-(co)closed.
2. Preliminaries
2.1. Definition. A category K is said to have (co)limits of size J if J is small and K
small-(co)complete with respect to some reasonable notion of small (including finite and
countable, as well as set-sized).
A monoidal category (K; ⊗, i) is said to have distributive (co)limits of size J if it has
(co)limits of size J and if these are distributed by ⊗.
× , eJ ) and (K; ∩
× , eK ) be monoidal categories, and suppose that

2.3. Remark. The hypothesis that K has colimits of size J implies that J can be made
into a K-category; one sets the hom-K-object Jm, nK to be the appropriate co-power of
eK —i.e., that corresponding to the hom-set [m, n]. The tensor product constructed in
Theorem 2.2 can then be understood as a convolution tensor product in the sense of
Day [5]. But the observation that convolution tensor product represents a very natural

a monoidal subcategory of Sup→ , since it does not even contain the object E.

however, frankly balked at the prospect of computing the double dual of an object in

The remaining naturality is left as an exercise to the reader.
Symmetrically, we can also define a natural transformation κ of the correct type.

4.4. Remark. If K is also bilinear, then the distributivity hypotheses of Theorems 4.2
and 4.3 are superfluous. Moreover, in this case KJ will be bilinear too, since the results
op
of [5] can be applied to both KJ and (KJ )op = (Kop )J . It therefore seems that bilinear
categories provide a more natural setting for these results than the more general one in
which we stated them.
On the other hand, a more general theorem—one which imposed no completeness
conditions on K—could undoubtably be proven if we were willing to adopt the more
general framework of polycategories. [A linear distributive category is essentially the same
thing as a representable polycategory.] Even in this context, however, the bilinearity of
J appears to remain crucial.

5. Star-autonomous functor categories
We now return to the case of greatest interest; throughout this section, J and K will
denote star-autonomous categories such that K has colimits of size J . We shall not
always pedantically distinguish between, for instance, e ; s and s∗ .

An analogous reduction applies to the right-hand composite; thus the statement of
the theorem is equivalent to the assertion that

A symmetric argument shows that we have a linear adjunction overlying ∗X and X
which demonstrates that ∗X is the left dual of X.
5.4. Corollary. If J and K are star-autonomous categories such that K has (co)limits
of size J , then KJ is star-autonomous as well.

5.6. Remark. One case of interest is when J and K happen to be compact—i.e., when
× = ∪
× . In this case, one might expect KJ to be compact also; but
they have d = e and ∩
this is not necessarily the case.
Unfortunately, the most natural example of this phenomenon occurs in the more general polycategorical setting referred to in the second half of Remark 4.4. We shall briefly
sketch this idea before discussing how it can be modified into an example which does
satisfy the hypotheses of this section.
5.7. Example. Let G denote the ordered group of integers regarded as a compact closed
× = + = ∪
× , e = 0 = d, and
category in the usual way—i.e., as a posetal category with ∩
∗
∗
x = −x = x; let V denote the usual compact closed category of finite-dimensional kvector spaces and k-linear transformations. Then, although V does not have limits of size
G, we see that the units of polycategorical structure of V G are representable, and that
they are different.

[In fact, it is possible to carve out an interesting full subpolycategory of V G which is
entirely representable: let us say that an object X of V G is stable if all but finitely many
of the transition maps Xn −→ Xn+1 are isomorphisms; then the full subcategory of stable
objects of V G does indeed form a star-autonomous category which is not compact.]
Now if we could replace V by a (non-trivial) compact closed category with all countable
limits, then the same argument would apply; embarrassingly, the author does not know
whether such a category exists. Alternatively, we could replace G by any finite compact
closed category containing an object r with a different number of arrows i −→ r and
r −→ i. Such categories are known to exist—the author is indebted to Robin Houston
for providing us with an example.
6. Linear functors
We now reap the reward for having pursued the greater generality advocated in section
3.
We recall that a linear functor [4] between linear distributive categories consists of a
monoidal functor and a comonoidal functor together with a set of four natural transformations called linear strengths and linear costrengths satisfying a number of coherence
conditions. Our notation will be as follows: if T is a linear functor, then its monoidal
part will be denoted (∀T ; µ, η), its comonoidal part (∃T ; δ, ε), and its linear strengths and
costrengths as below.

J.M. EGGER
This use of quantifier symbols is intended as a mnemonic aid; for instance, σ (`) should be
seen as corresponding to the tautology (∀t: T.x(t)) ∧ (∃t: T.y(t)) ⇒ (∃t: T.x(t) ∧ y(t)).
6.1. Theorem. Suppose that I is an arbitrary linear distributive category, and that J
and K satisfy the hypotheses of Theorem 4.2. Then there is a natural bijection between
linear functors I −→ KJ and linear functors I × J −→ K.
6.2. Lemma. Suppose that J and K satisfy the hypotheses of Theorem 4.2. Then the
linear distributions of J , K and KJ are related by the fact that the diagram

Proof of Theorem 6.1.

∃T̂ (x, p) = [∃T (x)]p .

[Note that we apply the notational convention of Remark 1.1.1 only to J , since I is not
assumed to be small.]

Now we know, from Theorem 2.2, that E −→ ∀T (e) corresponds to a unique arrow
η̂
µ
× ∀T (y) −→ ∀T (x ∩
× y)
e −→ [∀T (e)]e = ∀T̂ (e, e) and that each component of µ, ∀T (x) ∩
corresponds to a transformation (natural in p and q) of the form

∀T̂ (x, p) ∩

J.M. EGGER
—the naturality of µ (in x and y) naturally entails the same for µ̂. We take it as read
that (∀T̂ ; µ̂, η̂) form a monoidal functor I × J −→ K.
Similarly, σ (`) and σ (r) give rise to natural transformations
σ̂ (`)

∀T̂ (x, p) ∩

and, dually δ, ε, ϑ(`) , ϑ(r) give rise to natural transformations δ̂, ε̂, ϑ̂(`) , ϑ̂(r) of the correct
T̂
form. Thus, we have all the data necessary for a linear functor I × J −→ K; all that
remains to show are the coherence conditions.
Again, we shall prove only one of these, as an illustration:

(⇐). We hold it self-evident that the construction of the data of T̂ from those of T is
reversible—i.e., that the only non-trivial part of the converse has to do with the coherence
conditions.

more: each of these composites can be rewritten (expanded) according to the definitions
of the terms involved; to show that their expanded versions of these composites coincide
then quickly follows from the hypothesis, and the commutativity of a certain diagram in
J . We refer to Figures A.6 and A.7 for some of details—the reader who has been alert
up until this point should be able to fill in what remains.
Considering the case I = 1, and applying [6, Theorem 2.4], we obtain the following.
6.3. Corollary. Under the hypotheses of Theorem 4.2, there exists a natural bijection
between linear functors J −→ K and cyclic nuclear monoids in KJ .
We recall that a Frobenius monoid is defined in [6] to be a certain kind of cyclic
nuclear monoid; it therefore seems to make sense to distinguish those linear functors
which correspond to Frobenius monoids.
6.4. Definition. Let J , K be arbitrary linear distributive categories; then a Frobenius
monoidal functor J −→ K is a linear functor such that ∀T = ∃T , σ (`) = µ = σ (r) and
ϑ(`) = δ = ϑ(r) .

Equivalently, it is a functor J −→ K equipped with both a monoidal structure (µ, η

6.5. Example. We have previously shown that a Frobenius monoid in (Sup; ∩
amounts to a quantale equipped with a dualising element [6, Theorem 4.1]. A Frobenius
× , E, ∪
× , D) —equivalently, a Frobenius functor (→; ∧, >, ∨, ⊥) −→
monoid in (Sup→ ; ∩
op
× , , ∪
× ,  )—similarly amounts to a couple of quantales equipped with a dualising
(Sup; ∩
element in the sense of [7, Definition 1]. [Note that that definition requires a dualising
φ
element of a couple of quantales C −→ Q to be an element of C; therefore, it determines
a unique square

in Sup, which is to say, a unique arrow (C −→ Q) −→ D in Sup→ .]
Finally we note that the construction, given in [7, Theorem 15], of a single Frobenius
φ
quantale G from a Frobenius couple of quantales C −→ Q can be derived from the fact
that the functor
Sup→

(C −→ Q)

{(α, β) ∈ C × Q | φ(α) ≤ β}
admits a Frobenius monoidal structure.
7. Future Work
A definition of Girard monoid (or, symmetric Frobenius monoid) which could be interpreted in any symmetric linear distributive category was given in [6]; it was further shown
× , , ∪
× , op ) amounts to a quantale equipped with a cyclic
that a Girard monoid in (Sup; ∩
dualising element. It is not hard to show that the star-autonomous structure we have
constructed on Sup→ is also symmetric, nor that a dualising element of a couple of quanφ
tales C −→ Q is cyclic if and only if the corresponding Frobenius monoid in Sup→ is a
Girard monoid; thus Kruml’s notion of a Girard couple of quantales does fit into the more
general framework.
But it has become clear to the author, as a result of joint research with M.B. McCurdy
into cyclic star-autonomous categories [9, 2], that the notion of Girard monoid can, and
should, be studied in even greater generality than that of symmetric linear distributive
categories, and so we have decided to postpone a fuller discussion of Girard monoids (and
the associated Girard functors) until all the pre-requisites for the more general notion are
in place.
It is anticipated that the sequel to this paper will also address the observation, made
in [6, Remark 3.3], that there exists a more general notion than that of cyclic nuclear

monoid, in which we do not have M ∗ ∼
= ∗M . A study of the latter is made more urgent
by the linear distributive structure of KJ , which implies that there is also a more general
concept of “morphism of linear distributive category” than that of linear functor.
