Proving that composition distributes over copairing


Coproducts in $text{Grp}$Proving that the free group on two generators is the coproduct $mathbb{Z}*mathbb{Z}$ in $textbf{Grp}$Coproduct of rooted posetsProve that the free group generated by two elements is a coproduct of the integers by itself in GrpCan the identity $ab=gcd(a,b)text{lcm}(a,b)$ be recovered from this category?Equivalent definitions of filtered categoriesWhat are pullbacks of finite-coproduct injections along arbitrary morphisms?Simple problem from category theoryProve that $a$ and $b$ have a coproduct in $C$ iff $C(a, -) times C(b, -)$ is representableProve that $F(A coprod B) = F(A) ast F(B)$ in $mathsf{Grp}$.

I'm familiar with the universal property of coproducts, but I have no idea how to prove something like $h circ [ f, g ] equiv [ h circ f, h circ g ]$. The diagram obviously commutes, but I can't see how you'd prove this with the category + coproduct identities.



How might I go about this?

    It's the copairing of f and g / eliminator for the coproduct. The unique arrow given by the universal property.

    You mean, $f, g$ are two morphisms $f : a to c, g : b to c$, and $langle f + g rangle$ is the morphism $a sqcup b to c$ whose components are $f$ and $g$?

    The notation I've usually seen for that is $[f,g]$. $f+g$ is the bifunctorial action, and $langle f,grangle$ is commonly used for the pairing map for products. I've never seen $langle f+grangle$.
