Closed category

In mathematics, a closed category can be defined as a category V with an internal homomorphism functor V^{op} \times V \to V, left Yoneda natural arrows L: \left[B\ C\right] \to \left[\left[A\ B\right] \left[A\ C\right]\right] and a fixed object I of V such that there is a natural isomorphism i_A: A \to \left[I\ A\right] and a natural transformation j_A: I \to \left[A\ A\right].\,
