Lemma 12.29.3. Let \mathcal{A} and \mathcal{B} be abelian categories. Let u : \mathcal{A} \to \mathcal{B} and v : \mathcal{B} \to \mathcal{A} be additive functors. Assume

  1. u is right adjoint to v,

  2. v transforms injective maps into injective maps,

  3. \mathcal{A} has enough injectives, and

  4. vB = 0 implies B = 0 for any B \in \mathop{\mathrm{Ob}}\nolimits (\mathcal{B}).

Then \mathcal{B} has enough injectives.

Proof. Pick B \in \mathop{\mathrm{Ob}}\nolimits (\mathcal{B}). Pick an injection vB \to I for I an injective object of \mathcal{A}. According to Lemma 12.29.1 and the assumptions the corresponding map B \to uI is the injection of B into an injective object. \square
