Kernel (category theory)
In
category theory
and its applications to other branches of
mathematics
,
kernels
are a generalization of the kernels of
group homomorphisms
, the kernels of
module homomorphisms
and certain other
kernels from algebra
. Intuitively, the kernel of the
morphism

Y
is the "most general" morphism
k
:
K
→
X
that yields zero when composed with (followed by)
f
.
