Beck's theorem

Special case of Beck theorem. Let Q *Q * be an adjoint pair T its associated monad, and G its associated comonad.

If Q * preserves and reflects coequalizers of all parallel pairs in A (for which coequalizers exists) and if any parallel pair mapped by Q * into a pair having a coequalizer in B has a coequalizer in A, then the comparison functor K:BA T is an equivalence of categories.

If Q * preserves and reflects equalizers of all parallel pairs in B (for which equalizers exists) and if any parallel pair mapped by Q * into a pair having an equalizer in A has an equalizer in B, then the comparison functor K:AGComod is an equivalence of categories.
