locally strongly finitely presentable

A category is a locally strongly finitely presentable if it is cocomplete and there is a set GG of strongly finitely presentable objects such that every object is a sifted colimit of objects from GG. There are several equivalent conditions:

  • It is equivalent to the category of models of a many-sorted finitary algebraic theory.
  • It is equivalent to the category of finite-product-preserving functors to Set\mathbf{Set} from a small category with finite products (=Lawvere theory).
  • It is equivalent to the Eilenberg–Moore category of a finitary (=filtered-colimit-preserving) monad on SetS\mathbf{Set}^S for some set SS.
  • It is equivalent to the Eilenberg–Moore category of a sifted-colimit-preserving monad on SetS\mathbf{Set}^S for some set SS. (cf. [KR12, Proposition 3.3])
A category satisfying this property is simply called a variety (of algebras) by some authors, although one should be aware that this term is sometimes used only for the one-sorted case.
