This category contains results about Coslice Categories.
Let $\mathbf C$ be a metacategory.
Let $C \in \mathbf C_0$ be an object of $\mathbf C$.
The coslice category of $\mathbf C$ under $C$, denoted $C / \mathbf C$, is the category with:
Objects: | $f: C \to X$, i.e. the morphisms of $\mathbf C$ with domain $C$ | |
Morphisms: | $a: f \to f'$, for all morphisms $a \in \mathbf C_1$ with $a \circ f = f'$ | |
Composition: | $a \circ b$ is defined precisely as in $\mathbf C$ | |
Identity morphisms: | $\operatorname{id}_f := \operatorname{id}_X$, for $f: C \to X$ |
The morphisms can be displayed using a commutative diagram as follows:
- $\begin{xy} <-3em,0em>*+{X} = "X", <3em,0em>*+{X'} = "X2", <0em,4em>*+{C} = "C", "X";"X2" **@{-} ?>*@{>} ?*!/^1em/{a}, "C";"X" **@{-} ?>*@{>} ?*!/^.6em/{f}, "C";"X2" **@{-} ?>*@{>} ?<>(.6)*!/_1em/{f'}, \end{xy}$
