Abstract
Basing ourselves on Janelidze and Kelly’s general notion of central exten- sion, we study universal central extensions in the context of semi-abelian categories. We consider a new fundamental condition on composition of central extensions and give examples of categories which do, or do not, satisfy this condition.
