category of H *-algebras (Definition)
Definition 0.1  

The category of H $*$-algebras is defined as the category whose objects are H $*$-algebras and whose morphisms are *-homomorphisms between H $*$-algebras that commute with the antilinear involution $*:\mathbb{A}_H \to \mathbb{A}_H$.

Remark 0.1   The construction of H $*$-algebras is sometimes called `groupoidification'
