Mathlib.CategoryTheory.Monoidal.Grp_

The category of groups in a Cartesian monoidal category #

We define group objects in Cartesian monoidal categories.

We show that the associativity diagram of a group object is always Cartesian and deduce that morphisms of group objects commute with taking inverses.

We show that a finite-product-preserving functor takes group objects to group objects.

                            The associativity diagram of a group object is Cartesian.

                            In fact, any monoid object whose associativity diagram is Cartesian can be made into a group object (we do not prove this in this file), so we should expect that many properties of group objects follow from this result.

                                                            The essential image of a full and faithful functor between cartesian-monoidal categories is the same on group objects as on objects.

                                                            An adjunction of monoidal functors lifts to an adjunction of their lifts to group objects.
