Topological functors from factorization

Part of the Lecture Notes in Mathematics book series (LNM,volume 719)

Abstract

A "topological" functor T: AX gives rise to factorizations of sources in A and A op by means of initiality (and, resp. coinitiality). Conversely, a topological functor T : AX may be reconstructed, up to a natural degree of uniqueness, given suitable factorizations on A and A op.
