A categorical concept of completion of objects

Guillaume C. L. Brümmer, Eraldo Giuli (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We introduce the concept of firm classes of morphisms as basis for the axiomatic study of completions of objects in arbitrary categories. Results on objects injective with respect to given morphism classes are included. In a finitely well-complete category, firm classes are precisely the coessential first factors of morphism factorization structures.

A coalgebraic view on reachability

Thorsten Wißmann, Stefan Milius, Shin-ya Katsumata, Jérémy Dubut (2019)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Coalgebras for an endofunctor provide a category theoretic framework for modeling a wide range of state-based systems of various types. We provide an iterative construction of the reachable part of a given pointed coalgebra that is inspired by and resembles the standard breadth-first search procedure to compute the reachable part of a graph. We also study coalgebras in Kleisli categories: for a functor extending a functor on the base category, we show that the reachable part of a given pointed coalgebra...

A duality between infinitary varieties and algebraic theories

Jiří Adámek, Václav Koubek, Jiří Velebil (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A duality between λ -ary varieties and λ -ary algebraic theories is proved as a direct generalization of the finitary case studied by the first author, F.W. Lawvere and J. Rosick’y. We also prove that for every uncountable cardinal λ , whenever λ -small products commute with 𝒟 -colimits in Set , then 𝒟 must be a λ -filtered category. We nevertheless introduce the concept of λ -sifted colimits so that morphisms between λ -ary varieties (defined to be λ -ary, regular right adjoints) are precisely the functors...
