1 Monads Definition A monad T is a category C is a monoid in the category of endofunctors C C. More explicitly, a monad in C is a triple T, η, µ, where T : C C is a functor and η : I C T, µ : T T T are natural transformations which make the following diagrams commute: T T T µt T T T µ µ T T µ T T ηt T T id T T η id T Dually (by inverting the arrows in the given definition) one can define the notion of a comonad.
