Working with natural transformations🔗

Working with natural transformations can often be more cumbersome than working directly with the underlying families of morphisms; moreover, we often have to convert between a property of natural transformations and a (universally quantified) property of the underlying morphisms. This module collects some notation that will help us with that task.

module _ {o ℓ o' ℓ'} {C : Precategory o ℓ} {D : Precategory o' ℓ'} where
  private
    module DD = Cat.Reasoning Cat[ D , D ]
    module CD = Cat.Reasoning Cat[ C , D ]
    module D = Cat.Reasoning D
    module C = Cat.Reasoning C

We’ll refer to the natural-transformation versions of predicates on morphisms by a superscript ⁿ. A natural isomorphism is simply an isomorphism in a functor category.

  Inversesⁿ : {F G : Functor C D} → F => G → G => F → Type _
  Inversesⁿ = CD.Inverses

  is-invertibleⁿ : {F G : Functor C D} → F => G → Type _
  is-invertibleⁿ = CD.is-invertible

  _≅ⁿ_ : Functor C D → Functor C D → Type _
  F ≅ⁿ G = CD.Isomorphism F G

  module Inversesⁿ {F G : Functor C D} {α : F => G} {β : G => F} (inv : Inversesⁿ α β) =

  module is-invertibleⁿ {F G : Functor C D} {α : F => G} (inv : is-invertibleⁿ α) =

A fundamental lemma that will let us work with natural isomorphisms more conveniently is the following: if $α : F \Rightarrow G$ is a natural transformation which is componentwise inverted by $β_{-} : G (-) \to F (-),$ then $β$ is itself a natural transformation $G \Rightarrow F .$ This means that, when constructing a natural isomorphism from scratch, we only have to establish naturality in one direction, rather than both.

  inverse-is-natural
    : ∀ {F G : Functor C D} (α : F => G) (β : ∀ x → D.Hom (G .F₀ x) (F .F₀ x) )
    → (∀ x → α .η x D.∘ β x ≡ D.id)
    → (∀ x → β x D.∘ α .η x ≡ D.id)
    → is-natural-transformation G F β
  inverse-is-natural {F = F} {G = G} α β invl invr x y f =
    β y D.∘ G .F₁ f                    ≡⟨ D.refl⟩∘⟨ D.intror (invl x) ⟩

    β y D.∘ α .η y D.∘ F .F₁ f D.∘ β x ≡⟨ D.cancell (invr y) ⟩
    F .F₁ f D.∘ β x ∎

We can then create a natural isomorphism $F ≅^{n} G$ from the following data:

      inv∘eta : ∀ x → inv x D.∘ eta x ≡ D.id
      natural : ∀ x y f → G .F₁ f D.∘ eta x ≡ eta y D.∘ F .F₁ f

Moreover, the following family of functions project out the componentwise invertibility, resp. componentwise isomorphism, associated to an invertible natural transformation, resp. natural isomorphism.
