coregular

A category is coregular when its dual is regular, i.e. it is finitely cocomplete, for every morphism $Y \to X$ its cokernel pair $X \rightrightarrows X \sqcup_Y X$ has an equalizer, and regular monomorphisms are stable under pushouts.

• Dual property: regular
• Related properties: finitely cocomplete

Relevant implications

• abelian implies coregular
• coregular andself-dual implies regular
• coregular implies finitely cocomplete
• elementary topos implies coregular
• finitely cocomplete andthin implies coregular
• regular andself-dual implies coregular
