algebra.​category.​CommRing.​colimits

The category of commutative rings has all colimits.

This file uses a "pre-automated" approach, just as for Mon/colimits.lean. It is a very uniform approach, that conceivably could be synthesised directly by a tactic that analyses the shape of comm_ring and ring_hom.

We build the colimit of a diagram in CommRing by constructing the free commutative ring on the disjoint union of all the commutative rings in the diagram, then taking the quotient by the commutative ring laws within each commutative ring, and the identifications given by the morphisms in the diagram.

An inductive type representing all commutative ring expressions (without relations) on a collection of types indexed by the objects of J.

The relation on prequotient saying when two expressions are equal because of the commutative ring laws, or because one element is mapped to another by a morphism in the diagram.

@[instance]

The setoid corresponding to commutative expressions modulo monoid relations and identifications.
