Nov 19, 2023 at 23:56 comment added Arshak Aivazian @TimCampion Indeed, there was still a plausible (and fulfilled) option: the answer does not depend on ZFC. Thank you!
Nov 19, 2023 at 23:54 comment added Arshak Aivazian @IvanDiLiberti Thanks a lot!
Nov 19, 2023 at 23:20 comment added Ivan Di Liberti Check out Sec 2 of my paper "Codensity: Isbell duality...", most relevantly 2.17 and 2.18.
Nov 19, 2023 at 15:29 comment added Tim Campion Indeed, it is rare for locally presentable categories to have cogenerators at all (although categories of sheaves of sets or abelian groups do (importantly!) have injective cogenerators). However, as long as there does not exist a proper class of measurable cardinals, $Set^{op}$ has a dense cogenerator (given by the sets of cardinality $<\lambda$, where $\lambda$ is the largest measurable cardinal (which might be $\aleph_0$)). Note that this hypothesis is an "anti-large-cardinal-hypothesis" which contradicts VP, so there's no contradiction here.
Nov 19, 2023 at 13:11 comment added Maxime Ramzi For commutative rings you can easily find counterexamples: for any $\kappa$ there exists a field of cardinality $>\kappa$. Such a field cannot map to any ring of size $\leq \kappa$.
