View on Github →feat(algebraic_topology/simplicial_object + ...): Add has_limits + has_colimits instances (#6695)
This PR adds has_limits
and has_colimits
instances for the category of simplicial objects (assuming the existence of such an instance for the base category). The category of simplicial sets now has both limits and colimits, and we include a small example of a simplicial set (the circle) constructed as a colimit.
This PR also includes the following two components, which were required for the above:
- A basic API for working with
ulift C
whereC
is a category. This was required to avoid some annoying universe issues in the definitions ofhas_colimits
andhas_limits
. - A small shim that transports a
has_(co)limit
instance along an equivalence of categories.
