Abstract

$\def\O{\mathcal{O}}$There are two dual equivalences between the $\infty$-category of $\O$-monoidal $\infty$-categories with right adjoint lax $\O$-monoidal functors and that with left adjoint oplax $\O$-monoidal functors, where $\O$ is an $\infty$-operad. We study the space of equivalences between these two $\infty$-categories, and show that the two equivalences equipped with compatible $\O$-monoidal presheaf functors are canonically equivalent.
