Pullbacks of crossed modules and $Cat^1$-commutative algebras

Pullbacks of crossed modules and $Cat^1$-commutative algebras

In this paper we first review the definitions of crossed module [10], pullback crossed module and $cat^1$-object in the category of commutative algebras. We then describe a certain pullback of $cat^1$- commutative algebras.
