This category contains results about Categories of Subobjects.
Definitions specific to this category can be found in Definitions/Categories of Subobjects.
Let $\mathbf C$ be a metacategory.
Let $C$ be an object of $\mathbf C$.
The category of subobjects of $C$, denoted $\mathbf{Sub}_{\mathbf C} \left({C}\right)$, is defined as follows:
Objects: | Subobjects $m: B \to C$ of $C$ | |
Morphisms: | Morphisms $f: \operatorname{dom} m \to \operatorname{dom} m'$ of $\mathbf C$ such that $m' \circ f = m$ in $\mathbf C$ | |
Composition: | Inherited from $\mathbf C$ | |
Identity morphisms: | $\operatorname{id}_m := \operatorname{id}_{\operatorname{dom} m}$, the identity morphism in $\mathbf C$ of the domain of $m$ |
The behaviour of the morphisms is shown in the following commutative diagram in $\mathbf C$:
- $\begin{xy}\xymatrix@+1em{ B \ar[r]^*+{f} \ar[rd]_*+{m} & B' \ar[d]^*+{m'} \\ & C }\end{xy}$
