The monoidal category structure on R-modules #
Mostly this uses existing machinery in LinearAlgebra.TensorProduct
.
We just need to provide a few small missing pieces to build the
MonoidalCategory
instance.
The SymmetricCategory
instance is in Algebra.Category.ModuleCat.Monoidal.Symmetric
to reduce imports.
Note the universe level of the modules must be at least the universe level of the ring, so that we have a monoidal unit. For now, we simplify by insisting both universe levels are the same.
We construct the monoidal closed structure on Module R
in
Algebra.Category.ModuleCat.Monoidal.Closed
.
If you're happy using the bundled Module R
, it may be possible to mostly
use this as an interface and not need to interact much with the implementation details.
The associator_naturality
and pentagon
lemmas below are very slow to elaborate.
We give them some help by expressing the lemmas first non-categorically, then using
convert _aux using 1
to have the elaborator work as little as possible.

Remind ourselves that the monoidal unit, being just R
, is still a commutative ring.
