Topic: map to enriching category


view this post on Zulip Joe Moeller (May 15 2020 at 16:41):

Is there a name for a V-enriched category equipped with a V-functor to V? I want to call it "valuated", but I want to use a standard name even more, if it exists.

A right module over V?

Yes, thanks!

Presumably V\mathscr V-copresheaf is also reasonable terminology.

I'm also considering my V to be cocomplete, and the functor to be cocontinuous. Would that affect what I should call it? :thinking:

I might call it a "linear functional". But we probably want it to be nondegenerate: it should give zero only on zero.
