Examples
The canonical example is the category FdVect with finite dimensional vector spaces as objects and linear maps as morphisms. Here is the usual dual of the vector space .
The category of finite-dimensional representations of any group is also compact closed.
The category Vect, with all vector spaces as objects and linear maps as morphisms, is not compact closed.

Famous quotes containing the word examples:
“There are many examples of women that have excelled in learning, and even in war, but this is no reason we should bring ‘em all up to Latin and Greek or else military discipline, instead of needle-work and housewifry.”
—Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
“Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
“It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people’s attention and give them a livelier idea of God than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
