Definition df-cat 17294
Description: A category is an abstraction of a structure (a group, a topology, an order...) Category theory consists in finding new formulation of the concepts associated with those structures (product, substructure...) using morphisms instead of the belonging relation. That trick has the interesting property that heterogeneous structures like topologies or groups for instance become comparable. Definition in [Lang] p. 53, without the axiom CAT 1, i.e., pairwise disjointness of hom-sets (cat1 17728). See setc2obas 17725 and setc2ohom 17726 for a counterexample. In contrast to definition 3.1 of [Adamek] p. 21, where "A category is a quadruple A = (O, hom, id, o)", a category is defined as an extensible structure consisting of three slots: the objects "O" ((Base‘𝑐)), the morphisms "hom" ((Hom ‘𝑐)) and the composition law "o" ((comp‘𝑐)). The identities "id" are defined by their properties related to morphisms and their composition, see condition 3.1(b) in [Adamek] p. 21 and df-cid 17295. (Note: in category theory morphisms are also called arrows.) (Contributed by FL, 24-Oct-2007.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 2-Jan-2017.)
