Implication details

Claim: Given a functor whose codomain is trivial, and whose domain has an initial object, then it is a coreflector.

Proof: Let F:C→1F : \C \to 1 be the unique functor into the trivial category, and assume that C\C has an initial object XX. Then the constant functor X:1→CX : 1 \to \C is fully faithful and left adjoint to FF because Hom⁡(X(∗),Y)≅∗≅Hom⁡(∗,F(Y))\Hom(X(*),Y) \cong * \cong \Hom(*,F(Y)).
