Abstract
The category of Hopf monoids over an arbitrary symmetric monoidal category as well as its subcategories of commutative and cocommutative objects respectively are studied, where attention is paid in particular to the following questions: (a) When are the canonical forgetful functors of these categories into the categories of monoids and comonoids respectively part of an adjunction? (b) When are the various subcategory-embeddings arsing naturally in this context reflexive or coreflexive? (c) When does a category of Hopf monoids have all limits or colimits? These problems are also shown to be intimately related. Particular emphasis is given to the case of Hopf algebras, i.e., when the chosen symmetric monoidal category is the category of modules over a commutative unital ring.
