Endomorphisms #

Definition and basic properties of endomorphisms and automorphisms of an object in a category.

For each X : C, we provide CategoryTheory.End X := X ⟶ X with a monoid structure, and CategoryTheory.Aut X := X ≅ X with a group structure.

Endomorphisms of an object in a category. Arguments order in multiplication agrees with Function.comp, not with CategoryTheory.CategoryStruct.comp.

        Automorphisms of an object in a category.

        The order of arguments in multiplication agrees with Function.comp, not with CategoryTheory.CategoryStruct.comp.

          φ₁ = φ₂

          Units in the monoid of endomorphisms of an object are (multiplicatively) equivalent to automorphisms of that object.
