Hyperlink is simply a tuple, pairing a source and a target data component. Usually one may see the following data element examples:
(Source, Target) (URL string, Data Element) where URL stands for Universal Resource Locator or Indicator
Example:

A concrete example about linguistic sentence parsing in Category Theory can be seen here:
