CRing - Category of Commutative Rings

Table of Contents

1. Definition

The category CRing consisting of:

Objects
Commutative, associative rings with identity
Morphisms
Ring morphisms

We can also consider the category of Monoid Objects in Ab the category of Abelian groups.

2. Properties

2.1. Cocartesian Co-Monoidal Structure

The coproduct in CRing is given by the underlying tensor product of Abelian groups equipped with the induced commutative ring structure.

The tensor product of commutative rings exhibits the cartesian monoidal category structure on the opposite category \(\cat{CRing}^{op}\).
