Future work #

Some constructions in the bicategory library have only been done in terms of oplax functors, since lax functors had not yet been added (e.g FunctorBicategory.lean). A possible project would be to mirror these constructions for lax functors.

A lax functor F between bicategories B and C consists of a function between objects F.obj, a function between 1-morphisms F.map, and a function between 2-morphisms F.map₂.

Unlike functors between categories, F.map do not need to strictly commute with the composition, and do not need to strictly preserve the identity. Instead, there are specified 2-morphisms 𝟙 (F.obj a) ⟶ F.map (𝟙 a) and F.map f ≫ F.map g ⟶ F.map (f ≫ g).

F.map₂ strictly commute with compositions and preserve the identity. They also preserve the associator, the left unitor, and the right unitor modulo some adjustments of domains and codomains of 2-morphisms.
