In category theory, a reflector whose unit morphisms are epimorphisms; equivalently, a left adjoint to the inclusion functor of a full subcategory such that each object’s canonical map is an epimorphism.
The abelianization functor makes the category of abelian groups an epireflector in the category of groups, because the canonical map from a group to its abelianization is an epimorphism.
