Lax functors

A lax functor F between bicategories B and C consists of

• a function between objects F.obj : B ⟶ C,
• a family of functions between 1-morphisms F.map : (a ⟶ b) → (F.obj a ⟶ F.obj b),
• a family of functions between 2-morphisms F.map₂ : (f ⟶ g) → (F.map f ⟶ F.map g),
• a family of 2-morphisms F.mapId a : 𝟙 (F.obj a) ⟶ F.map (𝟙 a),
• a family of 2-morphisms F.mapComp f g : F.map f ≫ F.map g ⟶ F.map (f ≫ g), and
• certain consistency conditions on them.

Main definitions

• CategoryTheory.LaxFunctor B C : an lax functor between bicategories B and C
• CategoryTheory.LaxFunctor.comp F G : the composition of lax functors
• CategoryTheory.LaxFunctor.Pseudocore : a structure on an Lax functor that promotes a Lax functor to a pseudofunctor

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.
