On a conjecture by J. H. Smith.
We show that for an arbitrary Set-endofunctor T the generalized membership function given by a sub-cartesian transformation μ from T to the filter functor 𝔽 can be alternatively defined by the collection of subcoalgebras of constant T-coalgebras. Sub-natural transformations ε between any two functors S and T are shown to be sub-cartesian if and only if they respect μ. The class of T-coalgebras whose structure map factors through ε is shown to be a covariety if ε is a natural and sub-cartesian mono-transformation....
It is shown that the categories of -coalgebras for a commutative unital ring and the category of -corings for some -algebra as well as their respective categories of comodules are locally presentable.
It is proved that there exists no extension of any non-trivial weakly normal functor of finite degree onto the Kleisli category of the inclusion hyperspace monad.
The problem of extension of normal functors to the Kleisli categories of the inclusion hyperspace monad and its submonads is considered. Some negative results are obtained.
