Categories as models on a suitable algebraic theory

Category Theory 2011-09-12 v1

Abstract

We explain how categories, and groupoids, can be seen as models for a Lawvere Gr{\mathfrak Gr}-theory, where Gr{\mathfrak Gr} is the category of graphs, and show that for Lawvere Gr{\mathfrak Gr}-theories finitely presentable models are finitely presentable objects.
