COLIMITS IN THE CATEGORY OF QUADRATIC MODULES

To use of colimits to put structures together is not uncommon inmathematics; coproducts particularly of structures such as groups and vectorspaces have been known for a long time. Colimits have also been used incomputer science for example to put together labeled graphs, in system theoryetc. The importance of category for theoretical computer scientists is everydayincreasing.…nite (co)limits in the category of quadratic modules of groups by carefulconstruction of (co)product ob ject and (co)equilaser of morphisms of quadraticmodules. Moreover, we give some examples of coproduct
