Equalizers in Type #

The equalizer of a pair of maps (g, h) from X to Y is the subtype {x : Y // g x = h x}.

noncomputable def CategoryTheory.Limits.Types.typeEqualizerOfUnique {X Y Z : Type u} (f : X Y) {g h : Y Z} (w : CategoryStruct.comp f g = CategoryStruct.comp f h) (t : ∀ (y : Y), (ConcreteCategory.hom g) y = (ConcreteCategory.hom h) y∃! x : X, (ConcreteCategory.hom f) x = y) :

Show the given fork in Type u is an equalizer given that any element in the "difference kernel" comes from X. The converse of unique_of_type_equalizer.
