Abstract
Let F be the free group functor, left adjoint to the forgetful functor between the category of groups GRP and the category of sets SET. Let f from A to B, and h from A to C be two functions in SET and let Ker(F(f)) and Ker(F(h)) be the kernels of the induced morphisms between free groups. Provided that the kernel pairs Eq(f) and Eq(h) of f and h permute (such as it is the case when the pushout of f and h is a double extension in SET), this short article describes a method to rewrite a general element in the intersection of Ker(F(f)) and Ker(F(g)) as a product of generators in A which is (f,h)-symmetric in the sense of the higher covering theory of racks and quandles.
