For a tiny object , the exponential functor has a right adjoint, say . The defining exponential adjunction gives the natural isomorphismsince . If are tiny objects, the composite on the right is a left adjoint with right adjoint . Thus is tiny. The terminal object is tiny because exponentiation by it is naturally the identity, which is its own right adjoint. Induction, including this empty-product case, proves tiny objects are closed under finite products:
