WordDefinition
generalized elementnoun(category theory) A morphism whose codomain is some specified object.
generic elementnoun(category theory) The identity element of an object when thought of as a generalized element of that object.
universal morphismnoun(category theory) The terminal object of a comma category from a functor to a fixed object; or, dually, the initial object of a comma category from a fixed object to a functor.
terminal objectnoun(category theory) An object within a category which receives arrows from all other objects in that category, and such that each of these arrows is unique.
objectnounA thing that has physical existence but is not alive.
fibrenounDietary fibre.
functornoun(object-oriented programming) A function object.
epimorphismnoun(category theory) A morphism p such that for any other pair of morphisms f and g, if f∘p=g∘p, then f = g.
classifying morphismnoun(category theory) A morphism from an object to the subobject classifier which corresponds to a unique subobject of the said object, which subobject is the pullback, along this morphism, of the "true" global element of the subobject classifier.
morphismnoun(mathematics, category theory) (formally) An arrow in a category; (less formally) an abstraction that generalises a map from one mathematical object to another and is structure-preserving in a way that depends on the branch of mathematics from which it arises.
projectionnounThe action of projecting or throwing or propelling something.
small categorynoun(category theory) A category such that all of its objects form a set and all of its morphisms form a set.
fibernoun(uncountable) A material in the form of fibers.
group objectnoun(category theory) Given a category C, any object X ∈ C on which morphisms are defined corresponding to the group theoretic concepts of a binary operation (called multiplication), identity and inverse, such that multiplication is associative and properties are satisfied that correspond to the existence of inverse elements and the identity element.
monomorphismnoun(mathematics) an injective homomorphism
overfunctornoun(category theory) A morphism of an overcategory.
initial objectnoun(category theory) An object within a category which sends out arrows to all other objects in that category, and such that each of these arrows is unique.
free categorynoun(category theory) A category that is induced by a multidigraph thus: it has as its objects the vertices of the multidigraph and its morphisms are paths in the multidigraph; composition of morphisms is concatenation of paths, as long as the end of one path coincides with the beginning of the other path; an identity morphism of an object is an “empty path” at that vertex.
direct productnoun(set theory) The set of all possible tuples whose elements are elements of given, separately specified, sets.
zero morphismnoun(category theory) A morphism which is both a constant morphism and a coconstant morphism.
