Pullbacks of abelian groups


Section AbPullback.
  (* Variables are named to correspond with Limits.Pullback. *)
  Context {A B C : AbGroup} (f : B $-> A) (g : C $-> A).

  #[export] Instance ab_pullback_commutative
    : Commutative (@group_sgop (grp_pullback f g)).
  Proof.
    unfold Commutative.
    intros [b [c p]] [d [e q]].
    apply equiv_path_pullback; simpl.
    refine (commutativity _ _; commutativity _ _; _).
    apply equiv_sq_path.
    apply path_ishprop.
  Defined.

  Definition ab_pullback : AbGroup := Build_AbGroup (grp_pullback f g) _.

The corecursion principle is inherited from Group; use grp_pullback_corec and friends from Groups/GrpPullback.v.

End AbPullback.

Instance haspullbacks_abgroup : HasPullbacks AbGroup.
Proof.
  rapply (haspullbacks_induced abgroup_group).
  intros A B C f g.
   (ab_pullback f g).
  reflexivity.
Defined.

Instance isepistable_abgroup `{Univalence} : IsEpiStable AbGroup.
Proof.
  srapply Build_IsEpiStable.
  1: exact _. (* By the above, AbGroup has pullbacks. *)
  (* We have to show that the categorical epimorphisms are stable under pullback. *)
  intros A B C f g ef.
  intros Z k1 k2.
  (* Since surjections are epimorphisms in Type, it's enough to show that the pulled back map is a surjection. *)
  rapply issurj_isepi_funext.
  (* Since surjections are stable under pullback, it's enough to show that f is a surjection. *)
  apply issurj_pullback_pr2.
  (* This follows from the fact the epimorphisms of abelian groups are surjections. *)
  by apply ab_issurj_epi.
Defined.

Combining isepistable_abgroup with abenriched_abgroup from AbHom.v gives:
