Basic category theory

Basic category theory

by Leinster, Tom

Type Book
Rate 0.0 /5

"At the heart of this short introduction to category theory is the idea of a universal property, important throughout mathematics. After an introductory chapter giving the basic definitions, separate chapters explain three ways of expressing universal properties: via adjoint functors, representable functors, and limits. A final chapter ties all three together."--Provided by publisher.
