For an object X in a category, the representable functor $y(X)$ maps any object to the set of morphisms into X, denoted as Hom(-, X). It captures all the relationships (morphisms) from other objects to X.

Conditions: X is an object in a category.

There is a bijection between the set of morphisms from X to Y, Hom(X,Y), and the set of natural transformations from the representable functor Hom(-,X) to Hom(-,Y). This means that maps between objects correspond exactly to natural transformations between their representable functors.

Conditions: X and Y are objects in a category.

You can determine the structure of a mystery topological space X by examining all continuous functions (morphisms) mapping from other test spaces into X. For instance, mapping the unit interval I and the circle $S^1$ into X reveals the paths and loops within the space, which collectively determine its topological structure.

Conditions: The context is the category of topological spaces.; Test objects like the unit interval I and circle $S^1$ are used.

The enriched Yoneda lemma generalizes the standard Yoneda lemma to enriched categories, where morphisms are elements of a monoidal category rather than just sets. It states that the object of enriched natural transformations from Hom_X to F is isomorphic, as an object of the enriching category, to $F(X)$.

Conditions: The setting is enriched category theory.; Hom_X denotes the representable functor at X.; F is a functor in the same enriched context.

The Yoneda lemma states that for any functor F from C^{op} to Set, the value $F(X)$ is isomorphic to the set of natural transformations from the representable functor Hom(-, X) to F. Informally, it means an object is entirely determined by its relationships to other objects.

Conditions: C is a category.; X is an object in C.; F : C^{op} $\to$ Set is a functor.
