Topic: Categories with an endomorphism functor
Leucocholia (Dec 09 2024 at 19:02):
There are some categories for which the endomorphism function End
on objects forms a functor, and there's some research on this and I found some sufficient conditions, but are there any known necessary and sufficient conditions?
Building on that, what kinds of categories have a natural transformation exp : id => End
and/or a natural transformation log : End => id
(are they always unique and inverses)? How would you formalize this in Lean?
