algebra.category.Group.limits

The category of (commutative) (additive) groups has all limits

Further, these limits are preserved by the forgetful functor --- that is, the underlying types are just the limits in the category of types.

The flat sections of a functor into Group form a subgroup of all sections.

The flat sections of a functor into AddGroup form an additive subgroup of all sections.

A choice of limit cone for a functor into Group. (Generally, you'll just want to use limit F.)

A choice of limit cone for a functor into Group. (Generally, you'll just want to use limit F.)

Equations

The chosen cone is a limit cone. (Generally, you'll just want to use limit.cone F.)

The forgetful functor from groups to monoids preserves all limits. (That is, the underlying monoid could have been computed instead as limits in the category of monoids.)

The forgetful functor from groups to types preserves all limits. (That is, the underlying types could have been computed instead as limits in the category of types.)

Equations

We show that the forgetful functor CommGroupGroup creates limits.

All we need to do is notice that the limit point has a comm_group instance available, and then reuse the existing limit.
