Preservation and reflection of monomorphisms and epimorphisms #

THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.

We provide typeclasses that state that a functor preserves or reflects monomorphisms or epimorphisms.

@[protected, instance]
@[protected, instance]
@[class]

A functor reflects monomorphisms if morphisms that are mapped to monomorphisms are themselves monomorphisms.

Instances of this typeclass
@[class]

A functor reflects epimorphisms if morphisms that are mapped to epimorphisms are themselves epimorphisms.

Instances of this typeclass

If F is a fully faithful functor, split epimorphisms are preserved and reflected by F.

Equations

If F is a fully faithful functor, split monomorphisms are preserved and reflected by F.
