Adámek's theorem for constructing initial algebras of omega-cocontinuous functors

This section proves that (L,α : F L -> L) is the initial algebra where L is the colimit of the inital chain:
         !          F !           F^2 !
     0 -----> F 0 ------> F^2 0 --------> F^3 0 ---> ...
This result is also known as Adámek's theorem
