cospan
Etymology
co- + span
noun
-
(mathematics) The dual of a span. This extra structure arises from a lax symmetric monoidal functor F: mathbf C→ mathbf D; we use this functor to "decorate" each cospan with apex N∈ mathbf C with an element of F(N). 2016, Kenny Courser, “A bicategory of decorated cospans”, in arXiv
