§ Partial Function as Span

created 2022-09-28
  • A partial function f:D⊆X→Yf: D \subseteq X \to Yf:D⊆X→Y is a span of Y←D↪XY \leftarrow D \hookrightarrow XY←D↪X. What a slick definition!
  • See that if Y=1Y = 1Y=1, then a partial function X→1X \to 1X→1 carries only the data of D↪XD \hookrightarrow XD↪X, giving us subobjects.
