Noetherian objects

We shall say that an object X in a category C is Noetherian (type class IsNoetherianObject X) if the ordered type Subobject X satisfies the ascending chain condition. The corresponding property of objects isNoetherianObject : ObjectProperty C is always closed under subobjects.

Future works

• show that isNoetherian is a Serre class when C is an abelian category (TODO @joelriou)

def CategoryTheory.isNoetherianObject {C : Type u} [Category.{v, u} C] : ObjectProperty C

An object X in a category C is Noetherian if Subobject X satisfies the ascending chain condition. This definition is a term in ObjectProperty C which allows to study the stability properties of noetherian objects. For statements regarding specific objects, it is advisable to use the type class IsNoetherianObject instead.
