The simplex category #
We construct a skeletal model of the simplex category, with objects ℕ
and the
morphism n ⟶ m
being the monotone maps from Fin (n+1)
to Fin (m+1)
.
We show that this category is equivalent to NonemptyFinLinOrd
.
Remarks #
The definitions SimplexCategory
and SimplexCategory.Hom
are marked as irreducible.
We provide the following functions to work with these objects:
SimplexCategory.mk
creates an object ofSimplexCategory
out of a natural number. Use the notation[n]
in theSimplicial
locale.SimplexCategory.len
gives the "length" of an object ofSimplexCategory
, as a natural.SimplexCategory.Hom.mk
makes a morphism out of a monotone map betweenFin
's.SimplexCategory.Hom.toOrderHom
gives the underlying monotone map associated to a term ofSimplexCategory.Hom
.
Interpret a natural number as an object of the simplex category.
