Adjunctions regarding the category of (abelian) groups

This file contains construction of basic adjunctions concerning the category of groups and the category of abelian groups.

Main definitions

• AddCommGrp.free: constructs the functor associating to a type X the free abelian group with generators x : X.
• Grp.free: constructs the functor associating to a type X the free group with generators x : X.
• Grp.abelianize: constructs the functor which associates to a group G its abelianization Gᵃᵇ.

Main statements

• AddCommGrp.adj: proves that AddCommGrp.free is the left adjoint of the forgetful functor from abelian groups to types.
• Grp.adj: proves that Grp.free is the left adjoint of the forgetful functor from groups to types.
• abelianizeAdj: proves that Grp.abelianize is left adjoint to the forgetful functor from abelian groups to groups.
