This lecture introduces the fundamental concepts of limits and colimits in a category, defined as functors from a small category into a larger one. It covers the definition of limits, their properties, and the uniqueness of isomorphisms. The lecture then delves into the definition of colimits, their properties, and the uniqueness of isomorphisms. Examples are provided to illustrate these concepts.
