group object

English

Noun

group object (plural group objects)

  1. (category theory) Given a category C, any object X ∈ C on which morphisms are defined corresponding to the group theoretic concepts of a binary operation (called multiplication), identity and inverse, such that multiplication is associative and properties are satisfied that correspond to the existence of inverse elements and the identity element.

      If is another group object in , a morphism is a morphism of group objects if it commutes with the three structure morphisms; as is standard for sets and true generally (again by Lemma 7.7), it is enough to check . Thus we form the category of all group objects in ; one important example is .

Kleiman, Nitin Nitsure, Angelo Vistoli, Fundamental Algebraic Geometry: Grothendieck's FGA Explained, American Mathematical Society, page 20,
      The identity is obviously a homomorphism from a group object to itself. Furthermore, the composite of homomorphisms of group objects is still a homomorphism; thus, group objects in a fixed category form a category, which we denote by .

Usage notes

Alternatively, and more concisely, an object such that for any , the set of morphisms is a group and the correspondence is a functor from into the category of groups .

Group objects generalise the concept of group to objects of greater complexity than mere sets. In the process, attention is withdrawn from individual elements and placed more strongly on operations. A typical example of a group object might be a topological group where the object is a topological space on which the group operations are differentiable.
