Extensional quotient coalgebras

Given an endofunctor F of an arbitrary category, any maximal element of the lattice of congruence relations on an F-coalgebra (A, a) is called a coatomic congruence relation on (A, a). Besides, a coatomic congruence relation K is said to be factor split if the canonical homomor-phism ν : AK → A∇A sp...
