Filtered colimits commute with finite limits. #
We show that for a functor F : J × K ⥤ Type v
, when J
is finite and K
is filtered,
the universal morphism colimitLimitToLimitColimit F
comparing the
colimit (over K
) of the limits (over J
) with the limit of the colimits is an isomorphism.
(In fact, to prove that it is injective only requires that J
has finitely many objects.)

(G ⋙ lim).obj j
= limit (G.obj j)
definitionally, so this
is just a variant of limit_ext'
.
Injectivity doesn't need that we have finitely many morphisms in J
,
only that there are finitely many objects.
