is the category whose objects are Heyting algebras and whose morphisms are Heyting algebra homomorphisms, that is lattice homomorphisms which also preserve the Heyting implication. is a subcategory of Pos.
is given by a finitary variety of algebras, or equivalently by a Lawvere theory, so it has all the usual properties of such categories. By general abstract nonsense, the free Heyting algebra on a set exists, but it is not easy to describe in general.
