A relevant monad is a special kind of monad which is related to relevance logic.
Let be a category with Cartesian products. Let be a monad on .
Recall that is said to be right-strong with respect to the Cartesian product (see strong monad) if it is equipped with a natural transformation satisfying some coherence conditions which can be found on the linked page.
In what follows, fix a monad together with a choice of right strength for the Cartesian product.
Using the symmetry isomorphism of the Cartesian product it is possible to give a left strength by
Let be a strong monad. The right double-strength on is the natural transformation
If is a right-strong monad with respect to the Cartesian product, then is said to be relevant if the following diagrammatic law holds:
Concept was first introduced here, see Prop 2.2:
Jacobs is probably the first one to introduce the name ‘relevant monad’:
