short exact sequence (original) (raw)

Let A,B,C be objects in an abelian categoryMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath. A is an exact sequenceMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath of the form

0→A→B→C→0.

Note that in this case, the homomorphismMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath A→Bmust be a monomorphismMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath, and the homomorphism B→Cmust be an epimorphismMathworldPlanetmath.
