Nov 3, 2014 at 22:13 comment added Fernando Muro @SébastienPalcoux well, I don't know, I think I'm influenced by the usual meaning of the work bimodule.

addition of the "complety reducible" assumption for the exemple in remark
Nov 3, 2014 at 1:57 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @FernandoMuro: I'm not convinced that for the example of my remark there is no zero object, because (through the subfactors theory), this should be an extension of the category of finite groups: these monoid objects are "group like", not "ring like".
Nov 2, 2014 at 23:34 comment added Fernando Muro @SébastienPalcoux that of rings, which are monoids in abelian groups. Yours too.
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:54 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @FernandoMuro: what's the simplest example of category of monoid objects (on a monoidal category) without zero object?
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:48 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @ZhenLin: the unit object $\mathbb{Z}$ of Ab is not a zero object, but Ab has the zero object $\{ e \}$.
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:19 comment added Fernando Muro @QiaochuYuan neither Sébastien nor I.
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:18 comment added Qiaochu Yuan Oh, I assumed that Fernando meant monoids in $\text{Set}$.
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:18 comment added Zhen Lin @QiaochuYuan The trivial monoid with respect to a cartesian monoidal structure is a zero object, yes. But consider for instance $\mathbb{Z}$ as a monoid in $\mathbf{Ab}$...

Nov 2, 2014 at 22:17 comment added Fernando Muro @QiaochuYuan try to check that it's initial.
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:16 comment added Qiaochu Yuan @Fernando: hmm? The trivial monoid is surely the zero object.
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:15 comment added Fernando Muro There's no zero object in the category of monoids.
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:12 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @FernandoMuro: Nice! And what about the first isomorphism theorem?
Nov 2, 2014 at 22:11 comment added Fernando Muro Well, you're asking about notions which make sense (although they may not exist) in arbitrary categories with zero object.
