(1.1.3) In the classical theory of monoids the most important example is that of a group, i.e., a monoid in which all elements are invertible. Given an object X in a monoidal category, one can define a notion of an inverse object X, but this notion is rarely useful. There exists, however, a weaker notion of the same type which is useful. Definition. We say that an object X ∈ C is left rigid if there exist an object Y ∈ C and morphisms e : Y ⊗X → 1l and i : 1l→ X ⊗ Y such that the following compositions are the identity morphisms idX and idY , respectively: X → 1l⊗X → X ⊗ Y ⊗X → X ⊗ 1l→ X Y → Y ⊗ 1l→ Y ⊗X ⊗ Y → 1l⊗ Y → Y .
