The representing object in the functor category is the constant diagram in a category . If is the chosen categorical limit cone, the natural bijection isA natural transformation from the constant diagram in a category is precisely a categorical cone with vertex , and its inverse is the unique mediating morphism from the universal property of the categorical limit. For , the defining equations for show that postcomposition by corresponds to postcomposition by on the right. This establishes naturality in and proves representability by the constant diagram.
