Zero morphisms and zero objects #

A category "has zero morphisms" if there is a designated "zero morphism" in each morphism space, and compositions of zero morphisms with anything give the zero morphism. (Notice this is extra structure, not merely a property.)

A category "has a zero object" if it has an object which is both initial and terminal. Having a zero object provides zero morphisms, as the unique morphisms factoring through the zero object.

If you're tempted to use this lemma "in the wild", you should probably carefully consider whether you've made a mistake in allowing two instances of HasZeroMorphisms to exist at all.

See, particularly, the note on zeroMorphismsOfZeroObject below.

A category with a zero object has zero morphisms.

It is rarely a good idea to use this. Many categories that have a zero object have zero morphisms for some other reason, for example from additivity. Library code that uses zeroMorphismsOfZeroObject will then be incompatible with these categories because the HasZeroMorphisms instances will not be definitionally equal. For this reason library code should generally ask for an instance of HasZeroMorphisms separately, even if it already asks for an instance of HasZeroObjects.
