A triple (or monad) in a category K is a triple = (T, μ, η) where, T: K → K is a functor and μ: TT →, T, η: 1k → T are natural transformations for which (1.1) and (1.2) commute:

In these diagrams the component of a natural transformation α at an object x is denoted xα. Thus for example (kη)T is the value of the functor T applied to the component of η at k, whereas (kT)η is the component of η at the object kT. I write functions and functors on the right and composition from left to right.
