Abstract

The notion of lexicographic sum is introduced in general categories. Existence criteria are derived, particularly for locally cartesuan closed categories and for categories with suitable coproducts. Lexicographic sums satisfy a generalised associative law. More importantly, every morphism can be factored through the lexicographic sum of its fibres. This factorisation and the two types of maps arising from it, fibre-trivial and fibre-faithful, are studied partcularly for partially ordered sets and for T1-spaces
