Preservation of filtered colimits and cofiltered limits. #

Typically forgetful functors from algebraic categories preserve filtered colimits (although not general colimits). See e.g. Algebra/Category/MonCat/FilteredColimits.

Future work #

This could be generalised to allow diagrams in lower universes.

A functor is said to preserve filtered colimits, if it preserves all colimits of shape J, where J is a filtered category.

Instances

    A functor is said to preserve cofiltered limits, if it preserves all limits of shape J, where J is a cofiltered category.
