Subcomplexes of a simplicial set #

Given a simplicial set X, this file defines the type X.Subcomplex of subcomplexes of X as an abbreviation for Subpresheaf X. It also introduces a coercion from X.Subcomplex to SSet.

Implementation note #

SSet.{u} is defined as Cᵒᵖ ⥤ Type u, but it is not an abbreviation. This is the reason why Subpresheaf.ι is redefined here as Subcomplex.ι so that this morphism appears as a morphism in SSet instead of a morphism in the category of presheaves.
