Representable Functor

Representable Functor

13 May 20261 min read

Let F:Cop→Set be a Presheaf. The representation of F is a natural isomorphism to the hom-functor should it exist.

θ:C[−,a]≅F

In Category Theory, a Functor F:C→Set is representable iff There is an object a:C s.t. for all object b:C, the elements F(b) are really maps b→a . Say F is represented by the object c.
