V-Cat is locally presentable or locally bounded if V is so

G.M. Kelly and Stephen Lack

This appeared in Theory and Applications of Categories 8:555--575, 2001.

We show, for a symmetric monoidal closed category V and a regular cardinal k that the category V-Cat of small V-categories is locally k-presentable if the category V is so; that V-Cat is locally k-generated if the category V is so; and that V-Cat is locally k-bounded if V is locally k-bounded as a closed category: this last condition means that V is locally k-bounded as a mere category and a side condition involving the monoidal structure is satisfied.
