Jul 10, 2015 at 3:51 | comment | added | category_student | OK, thanks, it was not clear to me that this was a cardinality issue. A last question: Can I always index an ind-object by an ordinal, instead of just the integers? | |
Jul 10, 2015 at 1:23 | comment | added | David Roberts♦ | @EricWofsey well, assuming appropriate background logic :-) | |
Jul 10, 2015 at 0:58 | comment | added | Benjamin Steinberg | It's like sequences versus nets. | |
Jul 10, 2015 at 0:48 | comment | added | Eric Wofsey | For countable filtered diagrams, you can always find a cofinal sequence, but for uncountable filtered diagrams you usually cannot. | |
Jul 10, 2015 at 0:40 | comment | added | grghxy | Please describe $\mathbf{C}$ as a direct limit of a countably-indexed directed system of finitely generated $\mathbf{Q}$-subalgebras. Lots of interesting "ind"-constructions cannot be expressed with a countable index set. | |
Jul 10, 2015 at 0:33 | comment | added | category_student | OK but given an ind-object indexed by integers with divisibility I can just look at $n!$ and get an equivalent ind-object indexed by integers. Can I always do that? | |
