Discrete categories #
We define Discrete α
as a structure containing a term a : α
for any type α
,
and use this type alias to provide a SmallCategory
instance
whose only morphisms are the identities.
There is an annoying technical difficulty that it has turned out to be inconvenient
to allow categories with morphisms living in Prop
,
so instead of defining X ⟶ Y
in Discrete α
as X = Y
,
one might define it as PLift (X = Y)
.
In fact, to allow Discrete α
to be a SmallCategory
(i.e. with morphisms in the same universe as the objects),
we actually define the hom type X ⟶ Y
as ULift (PLift (X = Y))
.
Discrete.functor
promotes a function f : I → C
(for any category C
) to a functor
Discrete.functor f : Discrete I ⥤ C
.
Similarly, Discrete.natTrans
and Discrete.natIso
promote I
-indexed families of morphisms,
or I
-indexed families of isomorphisms to natural transformations or natural isomorphism.
We show equivalences of types are the same as (categorical) equivalences of the corresponding discrete categories.
A wrapper for promoting any type to a category, with the only morphisms being equalities.

- CategoryTheory.instDecidableEqDiscrete = Equiv.decidableEq CategoryTheory.discreteEquiv
The "Discrete" category on a type, whose morphisms are equalities.
Because we do not allow morphisms in Prop
(only in Type
),
somewhat annoyingly we have to define X ⟶ Y
as ULift (PLift (X = Y))
.
