Subject: Name for not-quite-additive categories
Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2012 14:04:55 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1RjIsQ-0003jJ-O7@mlist.mta.ca> (raw)
Has anyone settled on a term to describe categories (such as commutative
monoids) in which finite sums and products coincide but are not quite
additive? I guess they are commutative monoid enriched.
