More concepts to explore

  • Monoidal categories

    A tensor-like product and unit object obey coherent associativity and unit constraints.

  • Yoneda lemma

    Maps from a representable functor into a functor correspond naturally to an element at its representing object.

  • Adjunctions

    An adjunction relates morphism sets naturally between two functors.

  • Categorical isomorphisms

    A morphism is an isomorphism when it has a two-sided compositional inverse.

  • Categories

    A category has objects, morphisms, associative composition and identity morphisms.
