Abstract: We introduce monoidal categories whose monoidal products of any positive number of factors are lax coherent and whose nullary products are oplax coherent. We call them mathsfLax+mathsfOplax0-monoidal. Dually, we consider mathsfLax0mathsfOplax+-monoidal categories which are oplax coherent for positive numbers of factors and lax coherent for nullary monoidal products. We define mathsfLax0+mathsfOplax+0-duoidal categories with compatible mathsfLax+mathsfOplax0- and mathsfLax0mathsfOplax+-monoidal structures. We introduce comonoids in mathsfLax+mathsfOplax0-monoidal categories, monoids in mathsfLax0mathsfOplax+-monoidal categories and bimonoids in mathsfLax0+mathsfOplax+0- duoidal categories. Motivation for these notions comes from a generalization of a construction due to Caenepeel and Goyvaerts. This assigns a mathsfLax0+mathsfOplax+0-duoidal category mathsfD to any symmetric monoidal category mathsfV. The unital mathsfBiHom-monoids, counital mathsfBiHom-comonoids, and unital and counital mathsfBiHom-bimonoids in mathsfV are identified with the monoids, comonoids and bimonoids in mathsfD, respectively.
