对于确定性系统(表示为多项式函子上的余代数),每棵树 t(最终余代数的一个元素)最终都代表一个新的余代数 At。这个余代数族的普遍性质,类似于自由性,是对于每个系统 S 的每个状态 s,都存在一个唯一的余代数同态,它以 t 为根到 s。因此,树代数是有限可表示的,并形成一个强大的生成器。因此,这些余代数类别是局部有限可表示的;特别是,每个系统都是有限可表示系统的过滤余限。相反,对于表示为有限幂集函子上的余代数的过渡系统,我们表明存在无法过滤有限可表示(=有限)系统的余限的系统。令人惊讶的是,如果 λ 是不可数基数,那么 λ 表示总是表现良好:每当内函子 F 保留 λ 过滤余极限(即 λ 可达)时,那么 λ 表示的余代数正是其底层对象是 λ 表示的代数。因此,每个 F 余代数都是 λ 表示的余代数的 λ 过滤余极限;因此 Coalg F 是一个局部 λ 可表示的类别。 (这适用于具有 ω 链余限的 λ 可访问类别的所有内函子。) 推论:在 Kawahara 和 Mori 的意义上,集合函子在 λ 处有界,当且仅当它是 λ+ 可访问的。
For deterministic systems, expressed as coalgebras over polynomial functors, every tree t (an element of the final coalgebra) turns out to represent a new coalgebra At. The universal property of this family of coalgebras, resembling freeness, is that for every state s of every system S there exists a unique coalgebra homomorphism from a unique Atwhich takes the root of t to s. Consequently, the tree coalgebras are finitely presentable and form a strong generator. Thus, these categories of coalgebras are locally finitely presentable; in particular every system is a filtered colimit of finitely presentable systems. In contrast, for transition systems expressed as coalgebras over the finite-power-set functor we show that there are systems which fail to be filtered colimits of finitely presentable (=finite) ones. Surprisingly, if λ is an uncountable cardinal, then λ-presentation is always well-behaved: whenever an endofunctor F preserves λ-filtered colimits (i.e., is λ-accessible), then λ-presentable coalgebras are precisely those whose underlying objects are λ-presentable. Consequently, every F coalgebra is a λ-filtered colimit of λ-presentable coalgebras; thus Coalg F is a locally λ-presentable category. (This holds for all endofunctors of λ-accessible categories with colimits of ω-chains.) Corollary: A set functor is bounded at λ in the sense of Kawahara and Mori iff it is λ+-accessible.
