Extensive category

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, an extensive category is a category C with finite coproducts that are disjoint and well-behaved with respect to pullbacks. Equivalently, C is extensive if the coproduct functor from the product of the slice categories C/X × C/Y to the slice category C/(X +Y) is an equivalence of categories for all objects X and Y of C.[1]
