Definition

A symmetric monoidal (∞,1)-category (C,)(C,\otimes) is closed if for each object XCX \in C the (∞,1)-functor

X():CC X \otimes (-) : C \to C

given by forming the tensor product with CC has a right adjoint (∞,1)-functor

(X()[X,]):C[X,]X()C. (X \otimes(-)\dashv [X,-] ) : C \stackrel{\overset{X \otimes (-)}{\leftarrow}}{\underset{[X,-]}{\to}} C \,.

(In cases where the monoidal structure is not assumed symmetric, the property of possessing a right adjoint to tensoring on the left (resp. right) is called left (resp. right) closed, while closed is used for the properties jointly (Def. Definition 4.1.1.15 of Higher Algebra).)
