Mathlib.Algebra.Category.Grp.Colimits

The category of additive commutative groups has all colimits. #

This file uses a "pre-automated" approach, just as for Algebra.Category.MonCat.Colimits. It is a very uniform approach, that conceivably could be synthesised directly by a tactic that analyses the shape of AddCommGroup and MonoidHom.

TODO: In fact, in AddCommGrp there is a much nicer model of colimits as quotients of finitely supported functions, and we really should implement this as well (or instead).

We build the colimit of a diagram in AddCommGrp by constructing the free group on the disjoint union of all the abelian groups in the diagram, then taking the quotient by the abelian group laws within each abelian group, and the identifications given by the morphisms in the diagram.

An inductive type representing all group expressions (without relations) on a collection of types indexed by the objects of J.

Instances For

    The relation on Prequotient saying when two expressions are equal because of the abelian group laws, or because one element is mapped to another by a morphism in the diagram.

    Instances For

      The setoid corresponding to group expressions modulo abelian group relations and identifications.

      Equations

      The function from a given abelian group in the diagram to the colimit abelian group.

      Equations
      Instances For

        The group homomorphism from a given abelian group in the diagram to the colimit abelian group.

        Instances For

          The cocone over the proposed colimit abelian group.

            Instances For

              The function from the colimit abelian group to the cone point of any other cocone.

                Instances For

                  The categorical cokernel of a morphism in AddCommGrp agrees with the usual group-theoretical quotient.
