Category of groupoids #

This file contains the definition of the category Grpd of all groupoids. In this category objects are groupoids and morphisms are functors between these groupoids.

We also provide two “forgetting” functors: objects : Grpd ⥤ Type and forgetToCat : Grpd ⥤ Cat.

Implementation notes #

Though Grpd is not a concrete category, we use Bundled to define its carrier type.

Category of groupoids

Equations

Construct a bundled Grpd from the underlying type and the typeclass Groupoid.

Equations

Functor that gets the set of objects of a groupoid. It is not called forget, because it is not a faithful functor.

Convert arrows in the category of groupoids to functors, which sometimes helps in applying simp lemmas

Converts identity in the category of groupoids to the functor identity

Construct the product over an indexed family of groupoids, as a fan.

Equations

The product fan over an indexed family of groupoids, is a limit cone.
