Jul 9 at 7:31 | comment | added | Elías Guisado Villalgordo | $\def\I{\mathcal{I}}\def\C{\mathcal{C}}\def\c{\operatorname{colim}}$Another example is when $\C$ is an abelian category in which direct limits are exact. Let $\{C_i\mid i\in \I\}$ be a direct system in $\C$ such that $C_i\to C_j$ is injective for all $i\leq j$. Let $i\in\I$. We want to see that $C_i\to \c_{j\in\I}C_j$ is injective. We may assume that $i$ is initial in $\I$ (replace $\I$ by the full subcategory $\{j\in\C\mid i\leq j\}$, which is cofinal). The components of the functor morphism $C_i\Rightarrow C$ are all injective. Hence $\c(C_i\Rightarrow C)=C_i\to\c_{j\in\I}C_j$ is injective. | |
