  1. Moved material about elements of the final coalgebra of the endofunctor X↦1+A×XX \mapsto 1 + A \times X from stream to cofree coalgebra

    The revision is incorrect. While ℕ\mathbb{N}-indexed sequences are indeed streams, finite sequences are streams too.

    The operational property of a stream is that either:

    • It is empty
    • It is nonempty, you can read an element from it, and the remainder of the stream is itself a stream

    Additionally, I’m skeptical that making this an example at cofree coalgebra is a better place for this content than the stream page.

    (the actual transplant that was performed is clearly wrong, but I think that even if it was modified to just make it an example over on the other page, the move didn’t really make sense)

  4. As I asked in the nForum discussion thread

    https://nforum.ncatlab.org/discussion/17554/list-of-notable-initial-algebras-and-terminal-coalgebras

    does anybody have any references in the published literature of the usage of the word “stream” for the terminal coalgebra of either X↦A×XX \mapsto A \times X or X↦1+A×XX \mapsto 1 + A \times X?

    Judging by the reactions of other members of the nLab I highly suspect that both definitions are used in the literature for different purposes, but neither are cited on this page.
