Precategories and Galois theory

  • George Janelidze
Part I
Part of the Lecture Notes in Mathematics book series (LNM, volume 1488)

Abstract

We give a new version of Galois theory in categories in which normal extensions are replaced by arbitrary extensions for which the “pullback functor” is monadic, and their Galois groupoids are replaced by internal pregroupoids; we obtain the “fundamental theorem of Galois theory” using just simple remarks on internal precategories and change of universe for internal functors.
