On the tensor product of modules over skew monoidal actegories
Abstract
This paper is about skew monoidal tensored V-categories (= skew monoidal hommed V-actegories) and their categories of modules. A module over is an algebra for the monad T = R * _ on M. We study in detail the skew monoidal structure of M^T and construct a skew monoidal forgetful functor from M^T to the category of E-objects in M where E=M(R,R) is the endomorphism monoid of the unit object R. Then we give conditions for the forgetful functor to be strong monoidal and for the category M^T of modules to be monoidal. In formulating these conditions a notion of `self-cocomplete' subcategories of presheaves appears to be useful which provides also some insight into the problem of monoidality of the skew monoidal structures found by Altenkirch, Chapman and Uustalu on functor categories [C,M].
