algebra.category.CommRing.limits

The category of (commutative) rings has all limits #

Further, these limits are preserved by the forgetful functor --- that is, the underlying types are just the limits in the category of types.

def SemiRing.sections_subsemiring {J : Type u} [category_theory.small_category J] (F : J SemiRing) :
subsemiring (Π (j : J), (F.obj j))

The flat sections of a functor into SemiRing form a subsemiring of all sections.

The category of rings has all limits.

We show that the forgetful functor CommSemiRingSemiRing creates limits.

All we need to do is notice that the limit point has a comm_semiring instance available, and then reuse the existing limit.

The forgetful functor from rings to types preserves all limits. (That is, the underlying types could have been computed instead as limits in the category of types.)
