Abstract
Injectivity of objects with respect to a set of morphisms is an important concept of algebra, model theory and homotopy theory. Here we study the logic of injectivity consequences of , by which we understand morphisms such that injectivity with respect to implies injectivity with respect to . We formulate three simple deduction rules for the injectivity logic and for its finitary version where \mor s between finitely ranked objects are considered only, and prove that they are sound in all categories, and complete in all "reasonable" categories.
