Use the preservation obstructions to extending an adjoint chain: a functor having a further left adjoint must preserve categorical limits, while one having a further right adjoint must preserve colimits.

At the left end of the presheaf category chain, $\Lambda$ does not preserve the terminal object. The terminal categorical presheaf has singleton value everywhere, whereas $(\Lambda 1)(S)=\varnothing$ because $S\ne \varnothing$. Thus $\Lambda$ cannot itself be a right adjoint. At the right end, $\nabla$ does not preserve the initial object: $(\nabla \varnothing )(\varnothing )=\{\ast \}$ since the empty open set is proper. Thus $\nabla$ cannot itself be a left adjoint.

For the category of small categories chain, take two functors from the terminal category $1$ to the two-object indiscrete category $I\{0,1\}$, selecting its distinct objects. Their equalizer is the empty category. But their images under $C={\pi }_0$ are the same function between singleton sets, whose equalizer is a singleton. Hence $C$ does not preserve equalizers and has no further left adjoint. Finally, $I1⨿I1$ is the two-object discrete category, while $I(1⨿1)$ has arrows between its distinct objects. The canonical comparison is not an isomorphism of categories, so $I$ fails to preserve this coproduct and has no further right adjoint.
