Categories with chosen finite products #

We introduce a class, CartesianMonoidalCategory, which bundles explicit choices for a terminal object and binary products in a category C. This is primarily useful for categories which have finite products with good definitional properties, such as the category of types.

For better defeqs, we also extend MonoidalCategory.

Implementation notes #

For cartesian monoidal categories, the oplax-monoidal/monoidal/braided structure of a functor F preserving finite products is uniquely determined. See the ofChosenFiniteProducts declarations.

We however develop the theory for any F.OplaxMonoidal/F.Monoidal/F.Braided instance instead of requiring it to be the ofChosenFiniteProducts one. This is to avoid diamonds: Consider eg 𝟭 C and F ⋙ G.

In applications requiring a finite preserving functor to be oplax-monoidal/monoidal/braided, avoid attribute [local instance] ofChosenFiniteProducts but instead turn on the corresponding ofChosenFiniteProducts declaration for that functor only.

Projects #

An instance of CartesianMonoidalCategory C bundles an explicit choice of a binary product of two objects of C, and a terminal object in C.

Users should use the monoidal notation: X ⊗ Y for the product and 𝟙_ C for the terminal object.
