Isomorphism theorems for coalgebras
Abstract
Let F be an endofunctor of a category 𝒞. We prove isomorphism theorems for F-coalgebras under condition that the underlying category 𝒞 is exact; that is, regular with exact sequences. Also, F is not assumed to preserve pullbacks.
Keywords
subcoalgebra; bisimulation; exact sequence
