Introduction

Many existence theorems in categorical algebra have been proved by transfinite-induction arguments, either leading directly to the universal object sought, or establishing a solution-set condition permitting the application of Freyd's general adjoint functor theorem.

Thus, in the late 1960s, both Ehresmann and Gabriel used such arguments to prove the reflectivity, among presheaves, of the algebras they were considering - namely functors sending chosen cones to limit-cones. In Gabriel-Ulmer [8] this becomes the theorem on the reflectivity, in a locally-presentable category A, of the full subcategory K given by the objects A which are 1

orthogonal to,

or

sheaves for,

each map k of a small set K; in the sense that each A(k,A) is an isomorphism.

This was later generalized by Freyd-Kelly [7], both in respect to the conditions on A and the size of K.

Again, both Schubert [16] and Barr [2], at about the same time and independently, gave such arguments for the existence of colimits in the category of algebras for a monad: under suitable conditions, those of Barr being the weaker. In the same paper, Barr proved under similar conditions the existence of a free monad on a given endofunctor; and later Dubuc did the same for free monoids in any monoidal category - but only under stronger conditions like those of Schubert. Much more recently, Bousfield [5] used such arguments to show, under strong conditions, that a prefactorization system is a factorization system.

Freyd and Kelly remarked in [7] that "Our results seem to bear some relation, not too well understood, to those of Barrand Schubert". The connexion

(5)

for a

pointed

endofunctor Ton A; since Barr had constructed the free

monad on an endofunctor H by constructing the free H-algebra, which is also the free T-algebra for the pointed endofunctor T

=

1

+

H, the problems were now closely related.

This was pointed out by the present author in [9], along with a further unification and generalization: namely, the category T-Alg of algebras for T, whether T is a monad or merely a pointed endofunctor, is a full subcategory of the well-behaved comma category T/A; and the desired results all follow by proving it reflective. This reflectivity moreover played an essential role in the thesis of Blackwell [4], who was dealing with a 2-monad Tand comparing the strict and lax morphisms of its algebras.

However it still remained true that there were two different kinds of argument for the reflectivity: one in the strong conditions of Gabriel- Ulmer, Schubert, or Dubuc, which gave the reflexion directly as th2 colimit of a transfinite sequence, and one in the weaker conditions of Barr or Freyd- Kelly, which used a transfinite argument to get a solution set.

In the meantime, the question of algebras for an endofunctor, especially in its relation to automata theory, had attracted considerable attention from the Prague school; their advances in particular aspects of the question are summed up in Reiterman [15] and Adamek [ l ] , where further

references can be found. More recently, Koubek-Reiterman [13] have shown that, even under the weaker type of conditions, the free algebras for an endofuuctor H are obtained directly by the convergence of the appropriate transfinite

sequence, with no necessity for an appeal to the general adjoint functor theorem. They do not consider pointed endofunctors, although they do give a modification covering the algebras for a monad. Nor do they use the setting of [9] embedding the algebras into T/A; instead they use an embedding into

"generalized partial H-algebras", which would not answer the needs of Blackwell's argument.

(6)

These results are now spread over an enormous body of literature, many of the articles in fact being written in ignorance of one another.

There is also a scattering of mistakes: not in the statements of major theorems, but rather in incomplete or false proofs. lt seems to the present author an appropriate time to write a unified and simplified account, that may serve as a fairly full reference; and at the same time to complete the above work in some important respects. Besides the "constructive" existence in the pointed-endofunctor case, and the reflectivity in T/A which will be used by Blackwell and the author in a forthcoming paper, there are important aspects of the existence of free monoids, and of colimits in categories of monoids, which do not seem to have been discussed, but which we include in the

present account.

In arranging the account we obtain a conceptual simplification by the following observation. The algebras for a

well-pointed

endofunctor on A- by which we mean a pointed endofunctor 0: 1 + S satisfying S0

=

0S -forma full subcategory of A; andin this case the transfinite construction leading to the free algebras, and hence to the reflexion into the algebras, is parti- cularly simple. Then, for a general pointed T (which may be 1

+

H for an unpointed H), there is a well-pointed endofunctor S on T/A whose algebras form precisely the full subcategory T-Alg whose reflectivity we seek; and S is as well-behaved as T.

Our desire for completeness, involving us in the discussion of special cases and of counter-examples, has made the technical first chapter a little long; the reader may wish to skim through this and start with Chapter II.

BASIC TECHNICAL RESULTS

1.

Factorization systems

1.1

We identify cardinals with initial ordinals, and an ordinal with

the set of lower ones. We suppose there is an inaccessible cardinal 00 , and call cardinals and ordinals less than 00 small; in future when we say simply

"a is an ordinal", we mean a small one. A set is small if its cardinal is small; a category Ais small if its set of maps is small, and has small hom- sets if each A(A,B) is small. lt is cocomplete if it admits all small colimits.

The results are easily adapted to any other view of the foundations.

1.2

By a factorization system (E,M) on A we mean one in the sense of Freyd- Kelly [7], where most of the important properties of such systems are given:

one property we use often is that any pushout of an Eis an

E.

Another important property, noted by Bousfield [5], only special cases of which are given in [7], is the following: for a natural transformation a: T + S: K + A, if each aK E

E,

then colim a: colim T + colim S lies in

E,

whenever these

colimits exist. In future we shall write "a E E" for "each aK E E", using the same letters (E,M) for the factorization system on the functor-category [K,AJ induced pointwise from the system (E,M) on A.

Recall that the factorization systern (E,M) is said tobe proper if every Eis an epirnorphism and every M a rnonomorphism; and that this is not required in general. Recall that among the proper ones there are two extreme ones given by (extremal epimorphisms, all monornorphisms) and by (all epimorphisms, extremal monomorphisms), at least if Ais a cocomplete category adrnitting all cointersections of epimorphisms.

1.3 lt follows from [7] that every fibred coproduct of maps in E is again in

E.

lt is not possible that all such fibred coproducts, of whatever size, should exist, unless every Eis an epimorphism. For let f E

E,

let its cokernel-pair be u,v, let w be the unique rnap with wu

=

wv

=

1, and let e be the idempotent uw.

(8)

Then u,v E E as pushouts of f, wEE since u and wu do, and hence e E E.

To prove f epimorphic is to prove e

=

l; suppose the contrary. For some cardinal 8' let the fibred coproduct of (e.: l A A.). 8' where each A. is A l lE l and each e. is e, be (g.: A. B). 8. Then any family h

=

(h.: A. A). 8

'

l l l lE l l 1€

where each h. is 1 or e, has the form h.

=

kg. for a unique k: B A. Since

l l l

there are 28

such families, we have card A(B,A)

~

28, which is a contradiction if 8 is as big as the cardinal of the set of maps of A.

Nor is it possible for those E with a given domain always to forma small set (to within isomorphism), if Ais cocomplete and has small hom-sets, unless every Eis an epimorphism; for then in the above argument, since g. E

E,

l

Bis one of a small set {B.} of objects depending only on A, and we get the

J

contradiction already for a small 8, namely max. card A(B.,A). This was first

J J

pointed out by Adamek ll].

We call the factorization system (E,M) cocomplete if all fibred coproducts of maps in E do exist; and we now make a blanket assumption to hold throughout this paper (except in an occasional definition or remark where it

is clearly irrelevant): the category Ais cocomplete, and so is any factorization system (E,M) or (E' ,M') on A that we actW1lly use (as distinct from those we

merely discuss in §11). So every E will be an epimorphism; however (E,M) need not be proper, an important case being (isomorphisms, all maps).

The E-quotients of an object A (that is, the isomorphism-classes

of maps in E with domain A) then form an ordered set which is a complete lattice (with lA as its greatest element). There is now no distinction between the fibred coproduct of a family of such quotients and that of the corresponding set; it is appropriately called their cointersection. We say that Ais E- cowellpowered if each object has only a small set of such quotients; this is by far the most usual case in practice.

(9)

1.4

A (not necessarily small, but possibly empty) family of maps

(f.: A + B.) is

jointly in M,

or simply

in M,

if given any p: C + D in

E,

l l

and any maps u: A C and v.: B. D such that v.p

=

f.u for all i, there

l l l l

is a "unique diagonal fill-in" t: D A with tp

=

u and f. t

=

v. (cf. [ 7]

l l

p.177). In our case, since p is epimorphic, we only need some t with tp

' the other commutativity and the uniqueness are then automatic. Since we are supposing pushouts to exist, we can simplify the criterion still further, to that in the following proposition: whose easy proof we leave to the reader.

Proposition 1.1

(i) (f.: A B.)

1,s 1,n M if and only if, whenever each

f.

l l l

factorizes through

t: A C

with

t E

E, then

t

is an isomorphism.

(ii)

If

(f.:

A

B.) is in M and each

f.

factorizes through

t:

A

C,

l l l

then

(iv)

If

(f.:

l A B .)

l

1,S 1,n M and each

(gij: B. C .. )

1,S 1,n M then the

l l J

family

(g .. f.: A C .. )

D

l J l l J

Proposition 1.2 Any family

(g.: D B.)

factorizes uniquely

l l

as some

p: D A

in E followed by a family

(f.: A B.)

in M.

l l

Proof

Let {q.} be the totality of maps in E,with domain A, through which each J

g. factorizes, and let p be their cointersection. Then each g. factorizes

l l

through p as f.p, say; and (f.) is in

M

since there is no further

E

through

l l

which all the f. factorize. The uniqueness is clear from the "unique diagonal

l

fill-in". D

Remark

Even without the cocompleteness of

A,

it is easy to see that the truth of Proposition 1.2 implies, conversely, the cocompleteness of

(E,M).

Remark

When the g. in Proposition 1.2 are in

E,

p is their

un1,on

in the

l

lattice of quotient-objects of D. This is more familiar in the dual case

(10)

of M-subobjects, when every M is a monomorphism, in which i t was introduced in [7], andin which i t will be used, for small families, in §2.2 below.

1.5

The following result is well known in the case of a proper factorization, at least in the cowellpowered case. Its use in the present context was

sugges ted by Barr [ 3] .

If Bis a full subcategory of A, define its

M-closure

to consist of those A E A admitting some family (f.: A B.) in M with each B. E

B.

l l l

By Proposition 1.1 (iii), i t comes to the same thing to say that the family (A,B), consisting of

all

f: A B with BEB, is in

M.

Say that Bis

M-closed

if i t is equal to its M-closure; by Proposition 1.1 (iv), the M-closure of Bis M-closed. Say that a reflective full subcategory of Ais

E-reflective

if the reflecting maps are in

E.

Proposition 1.3

A

full subcategory B of Ais M-closed if and only if it is replete and E-reflective. Then Bis itself cocomplete~ and

(E,M)

restricts to a cocomplete factorization system on B.

Proof

Let

B

be E-reflective, with reilexion KA: A KA, and let A belang to the M-closure of

B.

Then the family (A,B) factorizes through KA, which is therefore in M by Proposition 1.1 (ii), since (A,B) is in M. Since KA belongs to

E,

i t is an isomorphism, so that A E

B

if Bis replete.

Conversely, if Bis M-closed, and we factorize the family (A,B) as in Proposition 1.2, i t is immediate that the E-part KA: A KA of the factorization is a reflexion of A into

B.

The factorization system restricts to Bin the sense that, if a map B C in

B

has the factorization B D C, then DE

B;

for Bis M-closed and D Cis in M. D

(11)

2. The effect of endofunctors on cones and colimits

2.1

A diagrarn (that is, a functor) X:

K

+

A

will be called an

a-chain

if the category K is the (srnall) ordinal a, and will be called a

sequence

if Fora general K we shall write Xß for the value of Xon objects, and X~: Xß + Xy for the value on rnaps; but rnostly we deal with chains or sequences, and then we write the connecting maps as x1: Xß + Xy for ß ~ y.

We say that a sequence X

converges

if the x1 are isomorph:ismsfor

y

~ ß ~ sorne

o.

An inductive cone r

=

(rS Xß + N) over X, with

vertex

N and

generators

rß, may be called a

K-cone,

or an

a-cone

when

K =

a. lt factorizes through the colirnit-cone q as

rß: x ß - c o l i r n X - N,

qß r

(2.1)

where in our applications r is in fact colirn r, since K is always at least connected, indeed filtered.

Fora factorization-systern (E,M) satisfying our blanket assurnptions, we call ran

M-cone,

or an (M,K)-cone,if each rß EM. This irnplies (because

the E are epirnorphisrns - cf. Proposition 1.1 (ii) or [7] Proposition 2.1.4) that each qß EM; which we express by saying that Xis an

(M,K)-diagram,

or an

(M,a)-chain.

This in turn irnplies that the connecting rnaps X~ are in

M,

but is in general stronger (although not when A

= Set, K

is filtered, and

M

is the rnonornorphisrns).

2.2

We say that the cone r is

E-tight,

or just

tight

when Eis understood, if

r

E Ein (2.1); thus when Eis the isornorphisrns, the only tight cones are the colirnit-cones. In general, if we take the (E,M)-factorization of rß tobe

rß: xß - zß ~ N ,

(2.2)

and rnake Z into a functor such that g is natural and j is a cone (using the naturality of the factorization), we have

r = j.

colirn g. Since colirn g E E because g E

E,

we see that r is tight if and only if the M-cone j is tight.

(12)

If (E,M) is proper, to say that j is tight is just to say that N is the un1.,on of the jf3 in the lattice of M-subobjects; or that N

=

Uimrf3(cf. the remark at the end of §1.4).

When

M

is the monomorphisms and

K

is filtered, an M-cone j has

I

EM if A

= Set;

hence also if Ais

Top

or

Haus

(the categories of topological or hausdorff spaces); hencetoo if Ais locally presentable, provided that now K is sufficiently-highly filtered. In such cases an E-tight M-cone is a colimit- cone. But this is no langer true for

Top

or

Haus

if M is the subspace-inclusions;

for an uncountable power of the reals is not a k-space, and is hence the (filtered) union of its compact subspaces without being their colimit. Andin general

nothing of the kind is true: in the category

Camp

of compact hausdorff spaces, with

E =

the epimorphisms

=

the extremal epimorphisms and

M =

the monomorphisms

=

the extremal monomorphisms, the one-point compactification of the natural numbers is the union of the w-chain of subspaces {0,1, ••. ,n}, but not their colimit, which is the Stone-Cech compactification.

2.3 The most general "smallness condition" we are going to consider on an endofunctor T: A Ais:

(*) T preserves the E-tightness of (M',K)-cones.

Here, in accordance with our blanket assumptions, (E,M) and (E',M') are tobe two cocomplete factorization systems on the cocomplete category A. What we mean by (*) is that, whenever r

=

(rf3: XS +N) is an (M' ,i<)-cone that is E-tight,

then the cone Tr

=

(Trf3: TXS + TN) is also E-tight, although it need not in general be an M'-cone.

We may impose this condition for a single

K,

or for a set of such.

The only cases wein fact consider are the following, wherein a is a regular cardinal:

(i) (*) is imposed for K

=

a alone.

(ii) (*) is imposed when K is any a-filtered (small) ordinal f3.

(iii) (*) is imposed when K is any a-filtered small category.

(13)

Of these, (i) is weakest (at least

a priori,

but also in fact: see §2.6 below); but is sufficient for our purposes so long as we consider a single T.

If we have a family (T.) of endofunctors, we may want each to satisfy (ii)

l

for some a., so that they sirnultaneously satisfy (i) for any a > each a ..

l l

In fact we very often have (iii) if we have anything at all; and although we don't need i t here, i t is very important in universal algebra.

Special cases of (*) have special names. When Eis the isomorphisms, (*) is the condition that T

preserves the colimits of all (M',K)-diagrams,

in the sense that the canonical comparison map T: colim TX + T colim Xis an isomorphism. When

E'

is the isomorphisms, so that

M'

is all maps, i t is the condition that T

preserves the E-tightness of all K-cones.

When both

E

and

E'

are the isomorphisms, it is that T

preserves the colimits of all K-diagra.ms;

when this is so for all a-filtered (small)

K,

i t is common to say that T

has rank~

a (or loosely that T has rank a). When

(E,M)

and

(E' ,M')

coincide and are proper, i t is the condition that, whenever N is a K-indexed union of M-subobjects N

=

Ur

6 ,

we have TN

=

UimTrß; and if further TM CM, so that Trß

=

im Tr

6 ,

i t is the condition that T

preserves K-indexed unions.

2.4 Since colimits commute with colimits, and since a colimit of maps in E is in

E,

i t follows that a colirnit of E-tight cones is E-tight. We conclude that if T:

I

+ [A,AJ is a functor such that each T.: A + A satisfies (*), and

l

such that colim T exists, then colim T: A + A satisfies

(*).

Again, if ~: T + T': A +Ais in

E,

and if T satisfies (*), so does T'; for colim ~XE

E

and ~NE

E,

so that colim T'r E

E

if colim Tr E

E.

What is not true is that, if T, T

1: A A both satisfy (*), so does T1T; unless perchance TM' CM'. In some contexts (as when we are considering algebras for a

monad,

and need to look at both Tand T2) , we can get around this difficulty by such a trick as that in Remark 4.3 below. But where, as in considerations such as those of §27.2 below, we really do need closure under composition, we must in general impose (*) with

M' =

all maps, to ensure

(14)

2.5

This case of

M' =

all maps is a very special one; it cannot happen except in the important special case where we have

(t) TE

CE.

For, K being connected in our applications, we can take for X the constant diagram at any object, whereupon (*) gives

(t).

Conversely, of course, once we have

(t),

we get (*) for any (M',K)-cone r once we have it for each

colimit (M'

,K)-cone. Moreover we have:

Proposition 2.1 If

TE

CE, the following are equivalent:

(i) T

preserves the E-tightness of all K-cones;

(ii) T

preserves the E-tightness of all (M,K)-cones.

Proof

Given (ii) let r be an E-tight K-cone and let it factorize as (2o2).

Since r is tight so is j, and hence Tj by (ii). On the other hand, Tg E E since g E

E,

so that colim Tg E

E.

lt follows that Tr is tight. D

2.6

Because the case

A = Set

is both extremely special and extremely

important, we consider it separately. Here we take (E,M) tobe (epimorphisms, monomorphisms). Since every epimorphism is a retraction (we assume the axiom of choice), (t) is satisfied by every endomorphism T. Now we have (generalizing Reiterman [15] §5):

Proposition 2.2 If K is a filtered ordered set and

T

~s an endofunctor of Set, the following are equivalent:

(i) T

preserves the colimits of aU K-diagrams;

(ii) T

preserves the colimits of aU (M,K)-diagrams;

(iii) T

preserves the E-tightness of aU (M,K)-cones;

(iv) T

preserves the E-tightness of aU K-cones.

Proof

(i) implies (ii) trivially, (ii) implies (iii) since TE

CE,

by the remark before Proposition 2.1, and (iii) implies (iv) by that proposition.

lt remains to show that (iv) implies (i).

(15)

Let qß:

x

6

colim X be the colimit of a K-diagram. By (iv), the canonical comparison T: colim TX T colim Xis in

E,

and we succeed if we prove that it is in

M.

Let x,y E colim TX with Tx

=

Ty. Remembering how filtered colimits in

Set

are constructed, let x,y have representatives u,v in some TXY; then T~.u = Tq

1,.v. Since the result is trivial if every Xß is the empty set 0, we may suppose that X f 0.

y

Let q have the (E,M)-factorization

y

~=

jp, let i be a right

inverse for the epimorphism p, and write e for the idempotent endomorphism ip of X

y For each ß 2: y let kß: Kß C Xy be the equalizer of X~ and X~e;

then Kß C Kß' for ß ~ ß', and Xy

=

Uß2:y Kß, since pe = p and hence ~e

= ~-

By setting Kß of

K.

K if ß ~ y, we can make K into a diagram defined on all y

Applying (iv) to this diagram gives TXY = Uß2:y im Tk

6 .

So for some

ß

2: y we have u = Tks.u' and V= Tks.v'. Since

x

13 k

=

Xß ek

y ß y ß we conclude

ß

ß

that TX .u = TX .Te.u, and similarly for v.

y y

Since X f

O

the domain of the monomorphism j is not

O;

so j is y

a coretraction and Tj is a monomorphism. From Tq .u = Tq .v we therefore get

y y

Tp.u

=

Tp.v and hence Te.u Te.v. The conclusion of the last paragraph now

ß ß ~

gives TXY.u

=

TXY.v; so that x

=

y, proving T monomorphic. D

A functor

A

Set

is often called

small

(or

petty)

if it satisfies the solution-set condition, or equivalently if it is the quotient of a small coproduct of representables. The small endofunctors of

Set

are precisely those that have some rank a (cf. [15] pp.69,70):

Proposition 2.3 For

T:

Set

Set and a regular cardinal

a,

the following are equivalent:

(i) T

preserves the colimits of all a-f'ilte-Ped diagY'ams;

(ii) T

preserves the colimits of all a-filtered M-diagrams;

(iii) T

is the left Kan extension of its restriction to the full subcategory

S

of Set given by the sets of cardinal

<

a;

a

(16)

(iv) T ~s

a quotient of a smaii coproduct

L Set(BA,-)

of representables with

card BA< a.

Proof

(i) implies (ii) trivially. To see that (ii) implies (iii), let the counit of the Kan extension be

J

BES

E: a TB x Set(B,-) - T.

Any set Ais the a-filtered M-colimit of its subsets A. of cardinal < a, and

l

both the domain and the codomain of E preserve this coliroit; since each EA.

l

is an isornorphisrn by Yoneda, so is sA. (iii) irnplies (i) since Set(B,-)

preserves a-filtered colirnits for card B < a, and (iii) implies (iv) trivially.

On the other hand (iv) irnplies that each EA is at any rate an epimorphism, since it is an isomorphism when T is replaced by

L

Set(BA,-). To conclude that (iv) implies (iii) it suffices therefore to observe that each EA is a monomorphism. If elements in the domain of EA represented by (x E TB, f: B A) and by (y ETC, g: C A) have the sarne image in TA, so that Tf.x

=

Tg.y,

let i: D A be the inclusion of a subset of cardinal < a containing the

images of fand g, and not eropty unless Ais eropty. Then Ti is a monomorphism since i is a coretraction, so that Tf' .x

=

Tg'.y where f

=

if' and g

=

ig'.

Thus (x,f) and (y,g) represent the same element of the doroain of EA. D Reiterman [15] (cf. also Barr [2]) shows that an endofunctor of Set preserving all colimits of w-chains roay fail tobe small, if and only if there exists a large set of strongly measurable cardinals; with a corresponding result for other regular cardinals a in place of w.

2.7

Although our interest is in endofunctors, not functors, an endofunctor of

A

may arise as the composite of T:

A

A

1 and F:

A

1

A,

where F (usually a left adjoint) preserves colimits and satisfies FE

1 CE, where (E 1,M

1) is a suitable factorization system on A

1. Then for FT to have the property (*) it suffices that T have it, in the sense of sending every E-tight

(M'

,K)-cone to an E -tight cone. The remarks of §§2.4, 2.5 extend at once to this case.

(17)

Note in particular that, when A

1

=

Set and E

1 is the epimorphisms, and when TM' is contained in the monomorphisms (as it is when T has the form A(A,-) and

M'

is contained in the monomorphisms), T has the property (*) if and only if it sends each E-tight M'-cone to a colimit-cone: by the remarks in §2.2.

3.

Examples and counterexamples

3.1 In spite of the results about special cases in §2.5 and §2.6, the truth of condition (*) is in general highly sensitive to the factorization systems (E,M) and (E',M'). As far as the dependence on (E',M') goes, the condition (*) is weaker the smaller

M'

is, so that we get the strongest results by taking the smallest possible M'-consistently with our requirements that

(E' ,M') be cocomplete, or with the stronger requirement of E'-cowellpoweredness where we need it. Since every

E'

has tobe an epimorphism, the smallest

possible

M'

is the extremal monomorphisms; and this will suit whenever, as is usually the case, Ais epi-cowellpowered. Of course where we need (*) tobe preserved under composition, we are forced back to

M' =

all maps, as we said in §2.4.

In general (*) is

strictly

weaker for a smaller

M'.

This is of course true in one trivial sense: if A is an O'.-generated but not a,-presentable object in a locally-presentable category A, the functor A(A,-): A + Set preserves a- filtered colimits of mono-diagrams but not of all diagrams; yet in this case A is ß-presentable for some larger cardinal ß. We mean rather that, when

M'

is enlarged, (*) may cease tobe true for any O'..

3.2

For instance, consider T: Top+ Top given by T

=

Top(A,-)•B, where S•B for SE Set denotes the coproduct of S copies of BE Top. For O'. > card A, the functor Top (A,-): Top+ Set sends a-filtered unions of subobjects to unions, and hence to colimits by §2.7; so for

M' =

the subobject-inclusions

=

the extremal monomorphisms, T satisfies (*) for a-filtered

K

both for

E =

the

(18)

isomorphisms and for any proper

(E,M).

Yet if we enlarge

M'

to the monornorphisms, and take A tobe the chaotic two-point space and B the one-point space 1,

Top(A,-)

no langer preserves for any regular a the unions of

(M'

,a)-chains, even of those that are colirnits. The exarnple

( [7] Ex. 3.3.3) is the a-chain X where each XS is a

+

1 as a set, the connecting rnaps are identities, and the open sets in XS are the ernpty set, the whole set, and the sets

{ojo

~

y}

for

y

~

ß,

lt follows that T no langer satisfies (*) for any of the above

E,

with K

=

any a.

3.3

Again, for the same reasons, the endofunctor T

=

Haus(A,-)•B of Haus satisfies (*) for a-filtered

K

with a > card A if

M'

= the subspace- inclusions (and

a fortiori

if

M'

subspace inclusions), both for E

the extremal rnonornorphisrns

=

the closed- the isornorphisms and for any E lying between the quotient maps and the surjections. In the special case A

=

1, this remains true (for filtered

K)

even for

M' =

the monornorphisms; for the colirnits in Haus of rnono-diagrams are the colimits in

Top.

Yet when A

=

B 1, T does not satisfy (*) for

K =

any a, if

E =

the isomorphisms and

M' =

all rnaps; even if all the

connecting-maps

in the a-chain are monomorphisms.

For consider the a-chain X in which every

x

6 ,

as a set, is the

disjoint union of two copies of the ordinal wa

+

l; the elernents corresponding to

y

~ wa in the two copies being denoted by

y'

and

y".

Give

x

6

the topology in which each

{y'}

and

{y"}

is open for

y

< wa, while a set containing (wa)' is open if it contains all but a finite number of the

y'

with

y

< wS, and all the

y"

with

y

< wa frorn sorne point on; and symmetrically for

(wa)".

With identities

for the connecting maps, each

x

6

is hausdorff but their colirnit in

Top

is not;

so that T does not preserve their colirnit in Haus.

3.4

On the other hand, for a givenM', even for

M' =

the extremal rnonomorphisms or

M' =

all maps, the strength of the condition (*) does not vary monotonically with changes in

E.

Thus with

M' =

all maps, the endofunctor Horn(Z

2,-) of abelian groups satisfies (*) for filtered

K

and

E =

the isomorphisms, but not

(19)

for

K =

any a if

E =

the epimorphisms. On the other hand the Stone-Cech compactification T: Haus Haus satisfies (*) for any K with

M' =

all maps, if E

=

the epimorphisms (by §2.4, since there is an epimorphism 1 T); yet for any E contained in the surjections i t fails for K

=

any a, even if

M'

is changed to the extremal monomorphisms. To see this, take Xß tobe ß

+

1 with the order-topology, for

ß

< a, so that colim Xis a with the order

topology. Since Xß is compact, the canonical map T:colim TX T colim Xis just the inclusion of a in Ta, which is a subspace inclusion since a is completely regular, but not a surjection since a is not compact.

3.5

Again, the endofunctor T

=

Haus(l,-)•B of Haus satisfies (*) for any K with

M' =

all maps, if Eis between the quotient maps and the surjections:

-for Haus(l,-) sends colimit-cones to epi-tight cones and sends surjections to epimorphisms. We have seen in §3.3 that this fails, for

K =

any a, if

E

is the isomorphisms; i t also fails, again for K

=

any a, if Eis the epimor- phisms, even if now

M' =

the extremal monomorphisms. The example ( [7]

Ex. 3.3.5) is the a-chain X of §3.4 above, with the epi-tight cone given by the embedding of x

6 = ß +

1 into a

+

1, the latter again with the order topology.

3.6 In §10 below we have to consider an endofunctor T, knowing only that i t is a regular-epimorphic quotient of 1

+

A(A,-)•B. If, say,

A =

Haus, we can still conclude, by §3.3 and §2.4, that T satisfies (*) for a-filtered K with a > card A, if

M'

is the subobjects and Eis between the quotient maps and

the surjections; but we can no langer conclude i t for E

=

the isomorphisms.

3.7

Barr [2] considers the example where T is the loop-space endofunctor on the category A of pointed hausdorff k-spaces, showing that T satisfies (*) for

M' =

subspace-inclusions and

E =

the isomorphisms, if

K = w.

He remarks that his proof, using a result of Dold and Thom, works for no other K than

w.

Yet his purpose - to show cocompleteness of the category of algebras for

(20)

the corresponding monad - can now equally well be served (see §25.l below) by having T satisfy (*) for

M = M' =

subspace-inclusions and for

K

sufficiently highly filtered; and this may be easily shown tobe so.

In fact A(l ,-)T A(s,-): A

Set,

where S is the circle. Since A(S,-) preserves the unions of a-filtered M-cones for a > card S, so does T.

4. A reduction in the well-copowered case

The trick is to get things to work even though we have (*) only for (M' ,K)-cones and not all K-cones. One way, suggested by Barr [3] in the case

E =

the isomorphisms, is to use Proposition 1.2 (with

M'

for its M).

Another is to use the proposition below, due to Koubek-Reiterman ([13] §8.5, Lemma). This is stronger: not only does it give constructive existence in the applications, but it is the only method the author knows of which

establishes cocompleteness of the algebras for a monad when E

=

the isomorphisms andM' is not all maps. On the other band it requires E'-cowellpoweredness

rather than just cocompleteness of (E',M'); but then this is a very mild restriction in practice.

If ( )': oo 00 is a strictly-increasing map (= injective functor), and Xis any sequence, we write X' for the sequence given by Xß

=

Xß,. In particular we write X for the sequence given by

+

we have the

A, + . h

natural transformation ~=X X wit components A cocontinuous strictly-increasing ( )': has

O' = O

and a'

=

supß<aß' for a limit- ordinal a, and is hence defined inductively by giving for each

ß

some

(ß+l)' >

ß'.

Proposition 4.1

Let

A

be E'-coweZZpowered and X: 00

A

any sequence. Then there are a cocontinuous strictly-increasing map () ': 00 00, a sequence Y: 00

A,

and a natural transformation i: Y X'+, such that

(i) X~ß+l)' iß EM' for aU y

~

(ß+l) ',

(21)

(ii)

for any

S:

A

A and any limit-ordinal a, the map

is an isomorphism.

Proof

We define ( )' inductively; suppose ß' defined. The E'-part of the (E',M')-factorization of x1, for y ~ ß' gets smaller with increasing y, and ultimately becomes stationary by the E'-cowellpoweredness; take for (ß+l)' the first y at which it achieves this stationary value, and let

xß, - Yß - x(ß+l)'

fß iß

(4 .1)

be the factorization of X(ß+l)'

ß'

Using the naturality of the factorization, make Y into a functor in such a way that f: X'+ Y, i: Y X'

+

are natural.

Then (i) is automatic from the construction.

Consider the diagram i

Y - - - - x ' +

~ l /+ l

~+

y+ _ _ _ _ x,++

i+ '

(4.2)

where ~ß

=

Y:+l and

W

is the corresponding map for X'. Since

(4.1)

expresses that

W =

if, the bottom triangle of (4.2) coIIIlllutes. Since ~f = f+W by the naturality of f, we also have by

(4.1)

that ~f

=

f+if, whence

~ =

f+i since f E

E'

is an epimorphism. Thus the top triangle of (4.2) coIIIlllutes.

Now apply S to (4.2) and pass to the colimit over the segment ß < a.

Writing for simplicity colim Si for colimß<aSiß and so on, and observing that colim SY+ colim SY with colim S~

=

1, and similarly for colim

sw,

+ we con- clude that colim Sf and colim Si are inverse, giving (ii). D

Proposition 4.2 Let A be E'-cowellpowered,let

S:

A

+

A satisfy

(*)

for K =

the regular cardinal

a,

and let

X: oo + A.

Then there is a limit-ordinal a'

such that, for each

y ~ a'

, if the cone

cx1: xß + X ) y ß<a' 1,S

E-tight for

some ( E,

M) ,

so ?°-s the cone

(SXß) ß<a'. y

(22)

Proof

Let ( )', Y, i be as in Proposition

4.1,

and let (x;)ß<a' be tight (= E-tight). Since the ß' with ß < a are final in a', so that (Xß)ß<a' and (Xß,)ß<a have the same colimit, the cone (X;,)ß<a is also tight; equally

the cone (X1ß+l)') ß<a , and so too the M' -cone (X1ß+l)' iß) ß<a , since colimß<aiß is an isomorphism.

Since S satisfies (*), S of this last cone is also tight. Now reversing the above steps ,since colimß<aSiß is an isomorphism, we have the desired result that (sx;)ß<a' is tight. D

Remark

4.3 If in Proposition

4.1

we start with

two

sequences X,X: 00

A,

+ - - - +

we can use the same ( ) ' for both, getting i: Y X' and i: Y X' with the desired properties; we merely rewrite the proof taking for (ß+l)' the first

Y

y -y

at which the E'-parts of

both

x

6 ,

and x

6 ,

achieve their stationary values.

If, in the proof of Proposition 4.2, we use this improved version of Proposition

4.1,

taking X tobe SX, we getan improved version of Proposition 4.2, in which the phrase after the last comma is replaced by "so are the cones

( Y) d ( 2 ) "

A

A

together with a natural transformation o: 1 + S. An

(S,a)-algebra

(A,a) is an object A of A together with an

action

a of (S,0) on A; by which is meant a map a: SA A satisfying a.oA

=

lA. Where confusion is unlikely we abbreviate (S,0) to Sand (A,a) to A, and speak of the

S-algebra

A. With an

S-algebra-map

f: (A,a) (A1,a1) defined as a map f: A A' for which f.a

=

a' .Sf, the S- algebras forma category S-Alg. The forgetful functor U: S-Alg + A sending

(A,a) to A clearly creates limits and V-absolute colimits; and hence is monadic whenever it admits a left adjoint.

oA.g = Sg.oSB by naturality; but this is S(g.oB) since So= os. D Recall that a map hin A and an object Aare said tobe

orthogonal

if A(h,A) is an isomorphism. Following Wolff [17], we have:

Proposition 5.2 Fora well-pointed

(S,o)

the following properties of

(i) A

(ii)

GA is an isomorphis~ so that A admits the unique S-action

Thus

with the inclusion.

(24)

Proof First, (i) (ii): since a.GA = 1, Lemma 5.1 gives GA.a = Sl = 1.

Next, (ii) (iii): to say that Ais orthogonal to GB is to say that each f: B A factorizes uniquely through GB. -1

But f = (GA) .sf.GB by naturality;

and if f = g.GB, then g = (GA) -1 . Sf by Lemma 5.1. Finally, (iii) (i): since Ais orthogonal to GA, we have some a with a.GA = 1.

the map GS A: SA SS Ais an isomorphism for some a, then siA is an isomorphism for y 2 ß 2 a, and the sequence SA= (SßA) converges; we may say that i t converges at a.

A

We call SA the free-algebra sequence for A, and when i t converges we say that the free algebra on A exists constructively. If this happens for every A (the a at which convergence occurs depending in general on A) we may say that S-Alg is constructively reflective in

Hence

Combining this with Proposition 4.2 now gives:

When both

E

and

E'

are the isomorphisms, so that S preserves all colimits of a-chains, the sequences

all converge at a. In the more general cases we have no such "uniformity" of the convergence.

(26)

7. An existence theorem without cowellpoweredness

We now give the analogue (once again generalized) of the alternative existence proof of Barr 's manuscript [3] .

Proposition 7.1

Let (S,o) be a well-pointed endofunctor~ let ~: s S*

be a map of endofunctors with each ~A epimorphic, and set o* = ~o: 1 s .

*

Then (S*,o*) is a well-pointed endofunctor, and S*-Alg consists of those S-algebras A for which ~Ais an isomorphism.

Proof By Lemma 5.1, oS*.~ = so,·, since CT'°' = ~o. Hence o,·,s,':.~ =~S'".oS*.~ =~S*.So*, which is s-1,0,·,.~ by naturality. Since ~ is epimorphic, we have o*S-l: = S>':o-J: as desired.

By Proposition 5.2, Ais an S*-algebra precisely when o*A = ~A.oA is invertible. But then CTA has a left inverse, so by Proposition 5.2 is already invertible; whence the result. D

Now let (S,o) be a well-pointed endofunctor on

A,

and (E,M) a cocomplete factorization system on

A.

Let B be the M-closure in

A

of S-Alg, in the sense of §1.5, and let K: 1 K: A A be the E-reflexion of A into B given by Proposition 1.3.

Proposition 7.2

KS:

A

A

with KCT: 1 KS ~s a well-pointed endofunctor on

A

whose algebras coincide with S-Alg.

Proof KCT: 1 KS is the composite of CT: 1 Sand KS: S KS. Since the

latter is in E and hence an epimorphism, KS is well-pointed by Proposition 7.1.

Moreover its algebras are those S-algebras A for which KSA is an isomorphism;

but this is all S-algebras. For if Ais an S-algebra, SA== Ais already in

B.

Write S*:

B

B

for the restriction to

B

of KS, with o* for the restriction of KCT. Then S* is a well-pointed endofunctor on the cocomplete

B,

the algebras for which again coincide with S-Alg. Recall from Proposition 1.3 that (E,M) restricts to a cocomplete factorization system on

B.

Proof The first sentence follows from Proposition 1.1 (ii), since any map from s,•ßB into an S-algebra factorizes through each s,·,~B, and since, when the reflexion exists, every map from B into an S-algebra factorizes through f.

In this latter situation f factorizes as fß. S"'~B for each ß;

Theorem 7.5

If~ for some regular

a,

either S preserves the E-tightness of (M,a)-cones~ or else S preserves the colimits of (M,a)-chains, the sequence S*B converges at a for each BEB, and free algebras exist.

Proof Under the first hypothesis, by §2.4, since KS: S KS is in E, the endofunctor KS of A preserves the E-tightness of (M,a)-cones since S does.

But then, by Proposition 7.4, the endofunctor s* of B preserves the E-tightness of (M,a)-cones.

Write X for the sequence S'"B. Then (Xa· ß. xß X )

a ß<a is an M-cone by Proposition 7. 3, and is E-tight since i t is a colimit-cone in

B.

Hence by hypothesis (S,.'Xa) is E-tight. by 5.5 this latter is a+l

But Lemma (Xß+l)ß<a;

ß ß<a

(28)

its E-tightness means that Xa+l = o*X, lies in E·, and since it lies in M a ' a

by Proposition 7.3, it is an isomorphism; so that X

=

S*aB is an S-algebra, a

and the sequence converges.

Turning to the second hypothesis, we observe chat (Xß)ß<a is an (M,a)-chain in

A,

since (Xß)ß<a is an M-cone; so that by hypothesis the a canonical map

colimß<a sx

6 -

s colimß<a x

6 (7.1)

is an isomorphism, where these are the colimits in

A.

Write Z for colimß<a x

6 ,

with generators qß: x

6

Z.

Now by Lemma 5.1, since KS.o

=

o*, the ~omposite

(7. 2)

is SO*Xß,

=

SXß ß+l ; so that its colimit in A over ß < a is the identity map of Therefore colimß<aKSXß is a coretraction; since it is also in E because K E E, it is an isomorphism; so that the cone

SX - - KSX ß KSX ß

ß

- - - z

is the colimit over ß < a of sx

6 .

lt easily follows that

(7.1)

is just oz:

z

this is

SZ; for oZ.qß+l·KSXß sqs+1·sxß ß+l = sqß.

Thus Z is an S-algebra, since oz is an isomorphism. Since Z is therefore already in

B,

it is also the colimit in B of (Xß)ß<a; that is, it is X = s,·~aB. Hence the sequence converges. D

Remark

7.6

The author cannot see how to adapt this argument to the slightly more general hypothesis, as in Theorem 6.2, that S preserves the E-tightness of (M' ,a)-cones; however the hypotheses of Theorem 7.5 cover most practical cases.

(29)

Remark 7.7

The fact that free S*-algebras exist constructively in these circumstances by no means implies that free S-algebras exist constructively.

In the example of Remark 5.4, with M

=

the extremal monomorphisms, both the hypotheses of Theorem 7.5 are trivially satisfied; and B reduces to S-Alg

= {

00 }.

8. The case

SEC E

In the important but special case where the well-pointed S satisfies SEC

E,

we can say a certain amount even when S satisfies no global condition of the form(*) of §2.3. First,

Proposition 8.1 Let SEC E. Then if

0A E

E for some

A E

A the free s-algebra on

A

exists, and is given by the

KA: A KA

of §7. If,moreover, Ais E-cowell- powered, the free s-algebra on

A

exists constructively.

Proof

Since 0KA.KA

=

SKA.0A by naturality, since 0A and KA are in

E,

and since SKA

E E

because SEC

E,

we have 0KA

E E.

But 0KA

EM

by Proposition 1.1 (ii), since KA E Band every map from KA to an S-algebra factorizes through 0KA.

So 0KA is an isomorphism, so that KA is already in S-Alg.

For the final assertion we argue inductively that SSA E E for all S,

0

whence the sequence SA converges by the E-cowellpoweredness. The assertion is trivial for ß = 0, and for ß = 1 i t is the hypothesis 0A E

E.

For the passage from ß to ß + 1, SEC

E

gives SS~A E

E,

which by Lemma 5.5 says S~+lA E

giving §ß+lA E

The closure of

A, the well-pointedness of S is automatic by Proposition 7.1, and SEC Eis also automatic. Moreover S preserves the

E-tightness of all cones by §2.4. Hence Proposition 8.1 is then a special case of Theorems 6.2 and 7.5.

Proposition 8.3

Let SEC E, and let f: A B be &n E. If the free S-algebra on A exists, so does that on

B;

and i f the first exists constructively, so does the second, in the case where Ais E-cowellpowered.

Proof Consider the pushout g

where g: A Cis the reflexion of A into S-Alg. Then since f E Ewe have k E E and hence Sk E E. Since oc is an isomorphism we conclude that oD E E, so that by Proposition 8.1 D admits a reflexion t: D E into S-Alg. Since g is orthogonal to every S-algebra, so is its pushout h; and since t too is orthogonal to every S-algebra, so is th (cf. [7], Prop. 2.1.3). Since Eis an S-algebra, it follows that th: B Eis the reflexion of B into S-Alg.

For the constructive part, we observe that there is a natural transformation s

and Eis closed under colimits, we have s E

lt follows that, if S~A is an isomorphism for y ~ ß ~ a,

then §YB E E for y ~ ß ~ a; whence by the E-cowellpoweredness SB converges. D ß
