Abstract

We study and relate categories of modules, comodules and contramodules over a representation of a small category taking values in (co)algebras, in a manner similar to modules over a ringed space. As a result, we obtain a categorical framework which incorporates all adjoint functors between these categories in a natural manner. Various classical properties of coalgebras and their morphisms arise naturally within this theory. We also consider cartesian objects in each of these categories, which may be viewed as counterparts of quasi-coherent sheaves over a scheme. We study their categorical properties using cardinality arguments. Our focus is on generators for these categories and on Grothendieck categories, because the latter may be treated as replacements for noncommutative spaces. © 2023 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2023.
