Functors which commute with shifts #

Let C and D be two categories equipped with shifts by an additive monoid A. In this file, we define the notion of functor F : C ⥤ D which "commutes" with these shifts. The associated type class is [F.CommShift A]. The data consists of commutation isomorphisms F.commShiftIso a : shiftFunctor C a ⋙ F ≅ F ⋙ shiftFunctor D a for all a : A which satisfy a compatibility with the addition and the zero. After this was formalised in Lean, it was found that this definition is exactly the definition which appears in Jean-Louis Verdier's thesis (I 1.2.3/1.2.4), although the language is different. (In Verdier's thesis, the shift is not given by a monoidal functor Discrete A ⥤ C ⥤ C, but by a fibred category C ⥤ BA, where BA is the category with one object, the endomorphisms of which identify to A. The choice of a cleavage for this fibered category gives the individual shift functors.)

For any functor F : C ⥤ D, this is the obvious isomorphism shiftFunctor C (0 : A) ⋙ F ≅ F ⋙ shiftFunctor D (0 : A) deduced from the isomorphisms shiftFunctorZero on both categories C and D.

    If a functor F : C ⥤ D is equipped with "commutation isomorphisms" with the shifts by a and b, then there is a commutation isomorphism with the shift by c when a + b = c.

    Instances For

      A functor F commutes with the shift by a monoid A if it is equipped with commutation isomorphisms with the shifts by all a : A, and these isomorphisms satisfy coherence properties with respect to 0 : A and the addition in A.
