Natural isomorphisms #

For the most part, natural isomorphisms are just another sort of isomorphism.

We provide some special support for extracting components:

if α : F ≅ G, then a.app X : F.obj X ≅ G.obj X, and building natural isomorphisms from components:

NatIso.ofComponents
  (app : ∀ X : C, F.obj X ≅ G.obj X)
  (naturality : ∀ {X Y : C} (f : X ⟶ Y), F.map f ≫ (app Y).hom = (app X).hom ≫ G.map f) :
F ≅ G

only needing to check naturality in one direction.

Implementation #

Note that NatIso is a namespace without a corresponding definition; we put some declarations that are specifically about natural isomorphisms in the Iso namespace so that they are available using dot notation.

Unfortunately we need a separate set of cancellation lemmas for components of natural isomorphisms, because the simp normal form is α.hom.app X, rather than α.app.hom X.

(With the later, the morphism would be visibly part of an isomorphism, so general lemmas about isomorphisms would apply.)

In the future, we should consider a redesign that changes this simp norm form, but for now it breaks too many proofs.
