Mathlib.CategoryTheory.Limits.Shapes.Preorder.HasIterationOfShape

An assumption for constructions by transfinite induction #

In this file, we introduce the typeclass HasIterationOfShape J C which is an assumption in order to do constructions by transfinite induction indexed by a well-ordered type J in a category C (see CategoryTheory.SmallObject).

A category C has iterations of shape a linearly ordered type J when certain specific shapes of colimits exists: colimits indexed by J, and by Set.Iio j for j : J.
