Implication Details

Claim: If a category is left cancellative, then it has coreflexive equalizers and has effective cocongruences and has effective congruences and has reflexive coequalizers.

Proof: Any parallel pair of morphisms f,g:ABf,g : A \rightrightarrows B with a common section (or retraction) must be a pair of equal isomorphisms. In particular, they are the kernel pair of idB\id_B, and the cokernel pair of idA\id_A.
