Weak Fraïssé categories
Theory and applications of categories, Tome 38 (2022), pp. 27-63
We develop the theory of weak Fraïssé categories, in which the crucial concept is the weak amalgamation property, discovered relatively recently in model theory. We show that, in a suitable framework, every weak Fraïssé category has its unique generic limit, a special object in a bigger category, characterized by a certain variant of injectivity. This significantly extends the present theory of Fraïssé limits.
