Injective objects and retracts of Fraïssé limits

Injective objects and retracts of Fraïssé limits

We present a purely category-theoretic characterization of retracts of Fra\"iss\'e limits. For this aim, we consider a natural version of injectivity with respect to a pair of categories (a category and its subcategory). It turns out that retracts of Fra\"iss\'e limits are precisely the objects that are injective relatively to …
