These are the arrows that come with standard LaTeX. The latexsym and amsfonts packages contain many more.

An example of the difference between \to and \mapsto is: \( f\colon D\to C \) given by \( n\mapsto n^2 \).

For commutative diagrams there are a number of packages, including tikz-cd and amscd.
