Lecture

Adjunctions, Products, and Coproducts

Description

This lecture covers the 'free group' example of an adjunction, followed by a discussion on a functor example with left and right adjoints, connecting a category to its morphism category. It concludes with how the coproduct and product of sets provide left and right adjoints, respectively, to the diagonal functor on the category of sets.
