Regular pairings of functors and weak (co)monads

For functors L : A → B and R : B → A between any categories A and B, a pairing is defined by maps, natural in A ∈ A and B ∈ B, MorB(L(A), B) ↔ MorA(A, R(B)). (L, R) is an adjoint pair provided α (or β) is a bijection. In this case the composition RL defines a monad on the category A, LR defines a...
