Every Sage object lies in a category. Categories in Sage are modeled on the mathematical idea of category, and are distinct from Python classes, which are a programming construct.
In most cases, typing ``x.category()`` returns the category to which ``x`` belongs. If ``C`` is a category and ``x`` is any object, ``C(x)`` tries to make an object in ``C`` from ``x``. Checking if ``x`` belongs to ``C`` is done as usually by ``x in C``.
See :class:`Category` and :mod:`sage.categories.primer` for more details.
EXAMPLES:
We create a couple of categories::
sage: Sets() Category of sets sage: GSets(AbelianGroup([2,4,9])) Category of G-sets for Multiplicative Abelian group isomorphic to C2 x C4 x C9 sage: Semigroups() Category of semigroups sage: VectorSpaces(FiniteField(11)) Category of vector spaces over Finite Field of size 11 sage: Ideals(IntegerRing()) Category of ring ideals in Integer Ring
Let's request the category of some objects::
sage: V = VectorSpace(RationalField(), 3) sage: V.category() Category of finite dimensional vector spaces with basis over (number fields and quotient fields and metric spaces) sage: G = SymmetricGroup(9) sage: G.category() Join of Category of finite enumerated permutation groups and Category of finite weyl groups sage: P = PerfectMatchings(3) sage: P.category() Category of finite enumerated sets
Let's check some memberships::
sage: V in VectorSpaces(QQ) True sage: V in VectorSpaces(FiniteField(11)) False sage: G in Monoids() True sage: P in Rings() False
For parametrized categories one can use the following shorthand::
sage: V in VectorSpaces True sage: G in VectorSpaces False
A parent ``P`` is in a category ``C`` if ``P.category()`` is a subcategory of ``C``.
.. note::
Any object of a category should be an instance of :class:`~sage.structure.category_object.CategoryObject`.
For backward compatibility this is not yet enforced::
sage: class A: ....: def category(self): ....: return Fields() sage: A() in Rings() True
By default, the category of an element `x` of a parent `P` is the category of all objects of `P` (this is dubious an may be deprecated)::
sage: V = VectorSpace(RationalField(), 3) sage: v = V.gen(1) sage: v.category() Category of elements of Vector space of dimension 3 over Rational Field """ from __future__ import absolute_import

class Category(UniqueRepresentation, SageObject): r""" The base class for modeling mathematical categories, like for example:
- ``Groups()``: the category of groups - ``EuclideanDomains()``: the category of euclidean rings - ``VectorSpaces(QQ)``: the category of vector spaces over the field of rationals
See :mod:`sage.categories.primer` for an introduction to categories in Sage, their relevance, purpose, and usage. The documentation below will focus on their implementation.
Technically, a category is an instance of the class :class:`Category` or some of its subclasses. Some categories, like :class:`VectorSpaces`, are parametrized: ``VectorSpaces(QQ)`` is one of many instances of the class :class:`VectorSpaces`. On the other hand, ``EuclideanDomains()`` is the single instance of the class :class:`EuclideanDomains`.
Recall that an algebraic structure (say, the ring `\QQ[x]`) is modelled in Sage by an object which is called a parent. This object belongs to certain categories (here ``EuclideanDomains()`` and ``Algebras()``). The elements of the ring are themselves objects.
The class of a category (say :class:`EuclideanDomains`) can define simultaneously:
- Operations on the category itself (what is its super categories? its category of morphisms? its dual category?). - Generic operations on parents in this category, like the ring `\QQ[x]`. - Generic operations on elements of such parents (e. g., the Euclidean algorithm for computing gcds). - Generic operations on morphisms of this category.
This is achieved as follows::
sage: from sage.categories.all import Category sage: class EuclideanDomains(Category): ....: # operations on the category itself ....: def super_categories(self): ....: [Rings()] ....: ....: def dummy(self): # TODO: find some good examples ....: pass ....: ....: class ParentMethods: # holds the generic operations on parents ....: # TODO: find a good example of an operation ....: pass ....: ....: class ElementMethods:# holds the generic operations on elements ....: def gcd(x,y): ....: # Euclid algorithms ....: pass ....: ....: class MorphismMethods: # holds the generic operations on morphisms ....: # TODO: find a good example of an operation ....: pass ....:
Note that the nested class ``ParentMethods`` is merely a container of operations, and does not inherit from anything. Instead, the hierarchy relation is defined once at the level of the categories, and the actual hierarchy of classes is built in parallel from all the ``ParentMethods`` nested classes, and stored in the attributes ``parent_class``. Then, a parent in a category ``C`` receives the appropriate operations from all the super categories by usual class inheritance from ``C.parent_class``.
Similarly, two other hierarchies of classes, for elements and morphisms respectively, are built from all the ``ElementMethods`` and ``MorphismMethods`` nested classes.
EXAMPLES:
We define a hierarchy of four categories ``As()``, ``Bs()``, ``Cs()``, ``Ds()`` with a diamond inheritance. Think for example:
- ``As()``: the category of sets - ``Bs()``: the category of additive groups - ``Cs()``: the category of multiplicative monoids - ``Ds()``: the category of rings
::
sage: from sage.categories.all import Category sage: from sage.misc.lazy_attribute import lazy_attribute sage: class As (Category): ....: def super_categories(self): ....: return [] ....: ....: class ParentMethods: ....: def fA(self): ....: return "A" ....: f = fA
sage: class Bs (Category): ....: def super_categories(self): ....: return [As()] ....: ....: class ParentMethods: ....: def fB(self): ....: return "B"
sage: class Cs (Category): ....: def super_categories(self): ....: return [As()] ....: ....: class ParentMethods: ....: def fC(self): ....: return "C" ....: f = fC
sage: class Ds (Category): ....: def super_categories(self): ....: return [Bs(),Cs()] ....: ....: class ParentMethods: ....: def fD(self): ....: return "D"
Categories should always have unique representation; by trac ticket :trac:`12215`, this means that it will be kept in cache, but only if there is still some strong reference to it.
We check this before proceeding::
sage: import gc sage: idAs = id(As()) sage: _ = gc.collect() sage: n == id(As()) False sage: a = As() sage: id(As()) == id(As()) True sage: As().parent_class == As().parent_class True
We construct a parent in the category ``Ds()`` (that, is an instance of ``Ds().parent_class``), and check that it has access to all the methods provided by all the categories, with the appropriate inheritance order::
sage: D = Ds().parent_class() sage: [ D.fA(), D.fB(), D.fC(), D.fD() ] ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'] sage: D.f() 'C'
::
sage: C = Cs().parent_class() sage: [ C.fA(), C.fC() ] ['A', 'C'] sage: C.f() 'C'
Here is the parallel hierarchy of classes which has been built automatically, together with the method resolution order (``.mro()``)::
sage: As().parent_class <class '__main__.As.parent_class'> sage: As().parent_class.__bases__ (<... 'object'>,) sage: As().parent_class.mro() [<class '__main__.As.parent_class'>, <... 'object'>]
::
sage: Bs().parent_class <class '__main__.Bs.parent_class'> sage: Bs().parent_class.__bases__ (<class '__main__.As.parent_class'>,) sage: Bs().parent_class.mro() [<class '__main__.Bs.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.As.parent_class'>, <... 'object'>]
::
sage: Cs().parent_class <class '__main__.Cs.parent_class'> sage: Cs().parent_class.__bases__ (<class '__main__.As.parent_class'>,) sage: Cs().parent_class.__mro__ (<class '__main__.Cs.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.As.parent_class'>, <... 'object'>)
::
sage: Ds().parent_class <class '__main__.Ds.parent_class'> sage: Ds().parent_class.__bases__ (<class '__main__.Cs.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.Bs.parent_class'>) sage: Ds().parent_class.mro() [<class '__main__.Ds.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.Cs.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.Bs.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.As.parent_class'>, <... 'object'>]
Note that that two categories in the same class need not have the same ``super_categories``. For example, ``Algebras(QQ)`` has ``VectorSpaces(QQ)`` as super category, whereas ``Algebras(ZZ)`` only has ``Modules(ZZ)`` as super category. In particular, the constructed parent class and element class will differ (inheriting, or not, methods specific for vector spaces)::
sage: Algebras(QQ).parent_class is Algebras(ZZ).parent_class False sage: issubclass(Algebras(QQ).parent_class, VectorSpaces(QQ).parent_class) True
On the other hand, identical hierarchies of classes are, preferably, built only once (e.g. for categories over a base ring)::
sage: Algebras(GF(5)).parent_class is Algebras(GF(7)).parent_class True sage: F = FractionField(ZZ['t']) sage: Coalgebras(F).parent_class is Coalgebras(FractionField(F['x'])).parent_class True
We now construct a parent in the usual way::
sage: class myparent(Parent): ....: def __init__(self): ....: Parent.__init__(self, category=Ds()) ....: def g(self): ....: return "myparent" ....: class Element: ....: pass sage: D = myparent() sage: D.__class__ <class '__main__.myparent_with_category'> sage: D.__class__.__bases__ (<class '__main__.myparent'>, <class '__main__.Ds.parent_class'>) sage: D.__class__.mro() [<class '__main__.myparent_with_category'>, <class '__main__.myparent'>, <type 'sage.structure.parent.Parent'>, <type 'sage.structure.category_object.CategoryObject'>, <type 'sage.structure.sage_object.SageObject'>, <class '__main__.Ds.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.Cs.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.Bs.parent_class'>, <class '__main__.As.parent_class'>, <... 'object'>] sage: D.fA() 'A' sage: D.fB() 'B' sage: D.fC() 'C' sage: D.fD() 'D' sage: D.f() 'C' sage: D.g() 'myparent'
::
sage: D.element_class <class '__main__.myparent_with_category.element_class'> sage: D.element_class.mro() [<class '__main__.myparent_with_category.element_class'>, <class __main__.Element at ...>, <class '__main__.Ds.element_class'>, <class '__main__.Cs.element_class'>, <class '__main__.Bs.element_class'>, <class '__main__.As.element_class'>, <...

def additional_structure(self): """ Return whether ``self`` defines additional structure.
OUTPUT:
- ``self`` if ``self`` defines additional structure and ``None`` otherwise. This default implementation returns ``self``.
A category `C` *defines additional structure* if `C`-morphisms shall preserve more structure (e.g. operations) than that specified by the super categories of `C`. For example, the category of magmas defines additional structure, namely the operation `*` that shall be preserved by magma morphisms. On the other hand the category of rings does not define additional structure: a function between two rings that is both a unital magma morphism and a unital additive magma morphism is automatically a ring morphism.
Formally speaking `C` *defines additional structure*, if `C` is *not* a full subcategory of the join of its super categories: the morphisms need to preserve more structure, and thus the homsets are smaller.
By default, a category is considered as defining additional structure, unless it is a :ref:`category with axiom <category-primer-axioms>`.
EXAMPLES:
Here are some typical structure categories, with the additional structure they define::
sage: Sets().additional_structure() Category of sets sage: Magmas().additional_structure() # `*` Category of magmas sage: AdditiveMagmas().additional_structure() # `+` Category of additive magmas sage: LeftModules(ZZ).additional_structure() # left multiplication by scalar Category of left modules over Integer Ring sage: Coalgebras(QQ).additional_structure() # coproduct Category of coalgebras over Rational Field sage: Crystals().additional_structure() # crystal operators Category of crystals
On the other hand, the category of semigroups is not a structure category, since its operation `+` is already defined by the category of magmas::
sage: Semigroups().additional_structure()
Most :ref:`categories with axiom <category-primer-axioms>` don't define additional structure::
sage: Sets().Finite().additional_structure() sage: Rings().Commutative().additional_structure() sage: Modules(QQ).FiniteDimensional().additional_structure() sage: from sage.categories.magmatic_algebras import MagmaticAlgebras sage: MagmaticAlgebras(QQ).Unital().additional_structure()
As of Sage 6.4, the only exceptions are the category of unital magmas or the category of unital additive magmas (both define a unit which shall be preserved by morphisms)::
sage: Magmas().Unital().additional_structure() Category of unital magmas sage: AdditiveMagmas().AdditiveUnital().additional_structure() Category of additive unital additive magmas
Similarly, :ref:`functorial construction categories <category-primer-functorial-constructions>` don't define additional structure, unless the construction is actually defined by their base category. For example, the category of graded modules defines a grading which shall be preserved by morphisms::
sage: Modules(ZZ).Graded().additional_structure() Category of graded modules over Integer Ring
On the other hand, the category of graded algebras does not define additional structure; indeed an algebra morphism which is also a module morphism is a graded algebra morphism::
sage: Algebras(ZZ).Graded().additional_structure()
Similarly, morphisms are requested to preserve the structure given by the following constructions::
sage: Sets().Quotients().additional_structure() Category of quotients of sets sage: Sets().CartesianProducts().additional_structure() Category of Cartesian products of sets sage: Modules(QQ).TensorProducts().additional_structure()
This might change, as we are lacking enough data points to guarantee that this was the correct design decision.
.. NOTE::
In some cases a category defines additional structure, where the structure can be useful to manipulate morphisms but where, in most use cases, we don't want the morphisms to necessarily preserve it. For example, in the context of finite dimensional vector spaces, having a distinguished basis allows for representing morphisms by matrices; yet considering only morphisms that preserve that distinguished basis would be boring.
In such cases, we might want to eventually have two categories, one where the additional structure is preserved, and one where it's not necessarily preserved (we would need to find an idiom for this).
At this point, a choice is to be made each time, according to the main use cases. Some of those choices are yet to be settled. For example, should by default:

- an enumerated set morphism preserve the distinguished enumeration? ::

This method together with the methods overloading it provide the basic data to determine, for a given category, the super categories that define some structure (see :meth:`structure`), and to test whether a category is a full subcategory of some other category (see :meth:`is_full_subcategory`). For example, the category of Coxeter groups is not full subcategory of the category of groups since morphisms need to preserve the distinguished generators::
sage: CoxeterGroups().is_full_subcategory(Groups()) False
The support for modeling full subcategories has been introduced in :trac:`16340`. """
@cached_method def structure(self): r""" Return the structure ``self`` is endowed with.
This method returns the structure that morphisms in this category shall be preserving. For example, it tells that a ring is a set endowed with a structure of both a unital magma and an additive unital magma which satisfies some further axioms. In other words, a ring morphism is a function that preserves the unital magma and additive unital magma structure.
In practice, this returns the collection of all the super categories of ``self`` that define some additional structure, as a frozen set.
EXAMPLES::
sage: Objects().structure() frozenset()
sage: def structure(C): ....: return Category._sort(C.structure())
sage: structure(Sets()) (Category of sets, Category of sets with partial maps) sage: structure(Magmas()) (Category of magmas, Category of sets, Category of sets with partial maps)
In the following example, we only list the smallest structure categories to get a more readable output::
sage: def structure(C): ....: return Category._sort_uniq(C.structure())
sage: structure(Magmas()) (Category of magmas,) sage: structure(Rings()) (Category of unital magmas, Category of additive unital additive magmas) sage: structure(Fields()) (Category of euclidean domains,) sage: structure(Algebras(QQ)) (Category of unital magmas, Category of right modules over Rational Field, Category of left modules over Rational Field) sage: structure(HopfAlgebras(QQ).Graded().WithBasis().Connected()) (Category of hopf algebras over Rational Field, Category of graded modules over Rational Field)
This method is used in :meth:`is_full_subcategory` for deciding whether a category is a full subcategory of some other category, and for documentation purposes. It is computed recursively from the result of :meth:`additional_structure` on the super categories of ``self``. """
def is_full_subcategory(self, other): """ Return whether ``self`` is a full subcategory of ``other``.
A subcategory `B` of a category `A` is a *full subcategory* if any `A`-morphism between two objects of `B` is also a `B`-morphism (the reciprocal always holds: any `B`-morphism between two objects of `B` is an `A`-morphism).
This is computed by testing whether ``self`` is a subcategory of ``other`` and whether they have the same structure, as determined by :meth:`structure` from the result of :meth:`additional_structure` on the super categories.

The current implementation selects the full subcategories among the immediate super categories of ``self``. This assumes that, if `C\subset B\subset A` is a chain of categories and `C` is a full subcategory of `A`, then `C` is a full subcategory of `B` and `B` is a full subcategory of `A`.
This assumption is guaranteed to hold with the current model and implementation of full subcategories in Sage. However, mathematically speaking, this is too restrictive. This indeed prevents the complete modelling of situations where any `A` morphism between elements of `C` automatically preserves the `B` structure. See below for an example.
EXAMPLES:
A semigroup morphism between two finite semigroups is a finite semigroup morphism::
sage: Semigroups().Finite().full_super_categories() [Category of semigroups]
On the other hand, a semigroup morphism between two monoids is not necessarily a monoid morphism (which must map the unit to the unit)::
sage: Monoids().super_categories() [Category of semigroups, Category of unital magmas] sage: Monoids().full_super_categories() [Category of unital magmas]
Any semigroup morphism between two groups is automatically a monoid morphism (in a group the unit is the unique idempotent, so it has to be mapped to the unit).

It is assumed that this method is only called from a lazy attribute whose name coincides with the given ``name``.
OUTPUT:
A dynamic class with bases given by the corresponding named classes of ``self``'s super_categories, and methods taken from the class ``getattr(self,method_provider)``.

- In this default implementation, the reduction data of the named class makes it depend on ``self``. Since the result is going to be stored in a lazy attribute of ``self`` anyway, we may as well disable the caching in ``dynamic_class`` (hence the default value ``cache=False``).
- :class:`CategoryWithParameters` overrides this method so that the same parent/element/... classes can be shared between closely related categories.
- The bases of the named class may also contain the named classes of some indirect super categories, according to :meth:`_super_categories_for_classes`. This is to guarantee that Python will build consistent method resolution orders. For background, see :mod:`sage.misc.c3_controlled`.

class CategoryWithParameters(Category): """ A parametrized category whose parent/element classes depend only on its super categories.
Many categories in Sage are parametrized, like ``C = Algebras(K)`` which takes a base ring as parameter. In many cases, however, the operations provided by ``C`` in the parent class and element class depend only on the super categories of ``C``. For example, the vector space operations are provided if and only if ``K`` is a field, since ``VectorSpaces(K)`` is a super category of ``C`` only in that case. In such cases, and as an optimization (see :trac:`11935`), we want to use the same parent and element class for all fields. This is the purpose of this abstract class.
Currently, :class:`~sage.categories.category.JoinCategory`, :class:`~sage.categories.category_types.Category_over_base` and :class:`~sage.categories.bimodules.Bimodules` inherit from this class.

ASSUMPTION:
It is assumed that this method is only called from a lazy attribute whose name coincides with the given ``name``.
OUTPUT:
A dynamic class that has the corresponding named classes of the super categories of ``self`` as bases and contains the methods provided by ``getattr(self, method_provider)``.
.. NOTE::
This method overrides :meth:`Category._make_named_class` so that the returned class *only* depends on the corresponding named classes of the super categories and on the provided methods. This allows for sharing the named classes across closely related categories providing the same code to their parents, elements and so on.
EXAMPLES:
The categories of bimodules over the fields ``CC`` or ``RR`` provide the same methods to their parents and elements::
sage: Bimodules(ZZ,RR).parent_class is Bimodules(ZZ,RDF).parent_class #indirect doctest True sage: Bimodules(CC,ZZ).element_class is Bimodules(RR,ZZ).element_class True
On the other hand, modules over a field have more methods than modules over a ring::
sage: Modules(GF(3)).parent_class is Modules(ZZ).parent_class False sage: Modules(GF(3)).element_class is Modules(ZZ).element_class False
For a more subtle example, one could possibly share the classes for ``GF(3)`` and ``GF(2^3, 'x')``, but this is not currently the case::
sage: Modules(GF(3)).parent_class is Modules(GF(2^3,'x')).parent_class False
This is because those two fields do not have the exact same category::
sage: GF(3).category() Join of Category of finite enumerated fields and Category of subquotients of monoids and Category of quotients of semigroups sage: GF(2^3,'x').category() Category of finite enumerated fields
Similarly for ``QQ`` and ``RR``::
sage: QQ.category() Join of Category of number fields and Category of quotient fields and Category of metric spaces sage: RR.category() Join of Category of fields and Category of complete metric spaces sage: Modules(QQ).parent_class is Modules(RR).parent_class False
