Completeness of the Category of Rack Crossed Modules
Completeness of the Category of Rack Crossed Modules
In this paper, we prove that the category of rack crossed modules (with a fixed codomain) is finitely complete. In other words, we construct the product, pullback and equalizer objects in the category of crossed modules of racks. We therefore unify the group-theoretical analogy of the completeness property in the sense of the functor $\mathbf{Conj \colon Grp \to Rack} $.
