Subject: relations on graphs
Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2007 20:10:58 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1HPm2k-0004lu-Va@mailserv.mta.ca> (raw)

If one allows multiple edges with the same source and target then
they certainly form a topos, namely that of presheaves over the
category with 2 objects and 2 parallel nontrivial arrows.
The \neg\neg-separated objects in this topos are precisely those
graphs where there is at most one edge from one node to another one.
The latter category is not a topos but a quasitopos.
The non-full monos in this category are typical examples of
epic monos which are not isos.

All this can be found in Lawvere's "Qualitative distinctions between
toposes of graphs".
