Subobject classifier
Appearance
In Category theory subobject classifier Ω is a special object of a category that has the following property:
for each monomorphism f: Y -> X there is a classifying morphism g: X -> Ω such that the following commutative diagram:
Y -> 1 | | v v X -> Ω
is a pullback diagram - that is, Y is the limit of the diagram
1 | v g: X -> Ω
Here 1 is the terminal object of the category.
