Obviously, any isomorphism is a homomorphism an isomorphism is a homomorphism that is also a correspondence. The special cases of su2 and sl 2c and their relationships with so3 and the lorentz group are studied in detail.
So, one way to think of the homomorphism idea is that it is a generalization of isomorphism, motivated by the observation that many of the properties of isomorphisms have only to do with the maps structure preservation property and not to do with it being a correspondence.
