and therefore to a functor









































this functor is, as a direct consequence of the definitions, fully faithful. therefore ind("c") can be regarded as a larger category than "c".









































conversely, there need in general not be a natural functor









































however, if "c" possesses all filtered colimits (also known as direct limits), then sending an ind-object formula_14 (for some filtered category "i") to its colimit









































does give such a functor, which however is not in general an equivalence. thus, even if "c" already has all filtered colimits, ind("c") is a strictly larger category than "c".
