module Borceux where

Though the 1Lab is not purely a formalization of category theory, it does aim to be a useful reference on the subject. However, the 1Lab organizes content in a highly non-linear fashion; this can make it somewhat difficult to use as a companion to more traditional resources.

This page attempts to (somewhat) rectify this situation by gathering all of the results from Francis Borceux’s “Handbook of Categorical Algebra” (Borceux 1994) in a single place.1

Volume 1🔗

1 The language of categories🔗

1.1 Logical foundations of the theory🔗

1.2 Categories and functors🔗

1.3 Natural transformations🔗

1.4 Contravariant functors🔗

Borceux defines contravariant functors as a distinct object rather than functors from this makes it somewhat difficult to map definitions on a 1-1 basis.

1.5 Full and faithful functors🔗

1.6 Comma categories🔗

1.7 Monomorphisms🔗

1.8 Epimorphisms🔗

1.9 Isomorphisms🔗

1.10 The duality principle🔗

1.11 Exercises🔗

2 Limits🔗

2.1 Products🔗

2.2 Coproducts🔗

2.3 Initial and terminal objects🔗

2.4 Equalizers, coequalizers🔗

2.5 Pullbacks, pushouts🔗

2.6 Limits and colimits🔗

2.7 Complete categories🔗

2.8 Existence theorem for limits🔗

2.9 Limit preserving functors🔗

2.10 Absolute colimits🔗

2.11 Final functors🔗

\ Warning

Borceux uses some outdated terminology here, and also uses a condition that is overly powerful. We opt to stick with the terminology from the nLab instead.

2.12 Interchange of limits🔗

2.13 Filtered colimits🔗

2.14 Universality of colimits🔗

2.15 Limits in categories of functors🔗

2.16 Limits in comma categories🔗

2.17 Exercises🔗

3 Adjoint functors🔗

3.1 Reflection along a functor🔗

3.2 Properties of adjoint functors🔗

3.3 The adjoint functor theorem🔗

3.4 Fully faithful adjoint functors🔗

3.5 Reflective subcategories🔗

3.6 Epireflective subcategories🔗

3.7 Kan extensions🔗

3.8 Tensor products of set-valued functors🔗

3.9 Exercises🔗

4 Generators and Projectives🔗

4.1 Well-powered categories🔗

4.2 Intersection and union🔗

4.3 Strong epimorphisms🔗

4.4 Epi-mono factorizations🔗

4.5 Generators🔗

4.6 Projectives🔗

\ Warning

Borceux uses the term “projective” to refer to strong projectives.

4.7 Injective cogenerators🔗

4.8 Exercises🔗

5 Categories of fractions🔗

5.1 Graphs and path categories🔗

5.2 Calculus of fractions🔗

5.3 Reflective subcategories as categories of fractinos🔗

5.8 The calculus of bidense morphisms🔗

5.9 Exercises🔗

6 Flat functors and Cauchy completeness🔗

6.1 Exact functors🔗

6.2 Left exact reflection of a functor🔗

8 Internal category theory🔗

8.1 Internal categories and functors🔗

8.4 Exercises🔗

  • Exercise 8.4.6:
    • (⇒) dependent-product→lcc
    • (⇐) lcc→dependent-product
