Abstract

We study the representation of additive functors over the functor category Mod C,convert an Abel group into a left C-module in Mod C,construct a Hom functor and a functorial morphism, and prove that any contravariant left exact additive functor F:Mod C→Ab converting sums to products is equivalent to some Hom functor.The results obtained here generalize the Watts theorem to functor categories.
