• The precomposition function associated to $f$ is the function
    \[ f^{*} \colon \textup{Hom}_{\mathcal{C}}\webleft (B,C\webright ) \to \textup{Hom}_{\mathcal{C}}\webleft (A,C\webright ) \]

    defined by

    \[ f^{*}\webleft (\phi \webright ) \mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}\phi \circ f \]

    for each $\phi \in \textup{Hom}_{\mathcal{C}}\webleft (B,C\webright )$.
