English
If U has a left adjoint F and certain regularity conditions hold, then L has a left adjoint whenever (L ⋙ F) does.
Русский
Если U имеет левое сопряжение F и выполняются условия регулярности, то L имеет левое сопряжение тогда и только тогда, когда (L ⋙ F) имеет левое сопряжение.

/-- The adjoint triangle theorem: Suppose `U : A ⥤ B` has a left adjoint `F` such that each unit
`η_X : X ⟶ UFX` is a regular monomorphism. Then if a category `C` has equalizers of coreflexive
pairs, then a functor `L : C ⥤ B` has a right adjoint if the composite `L ⋙ F` does.
Note the converse is true (with weaker assumptions), by `Adjunction.comp`.
