control.equiv_functor

Functions functorial with respect to equivalences #

An equiv_functor is a function from Type → Type equipped with the additional data of coherently mapping equivalences to equivalences.

In categorical language, it is an endofunctor of the "core" of the category Type.

An equiv_functor is only functorial with respect to equivalences.

To construct an equiv_functor, it suffices to supply just the function f α → f β from an equivalence α ≃ β, and then prove the functor laws. It's then a consequence that this function is part of an equivalence, provided by equiv_functor.map_equiv.

An equiv_functor in fact takes every equiv to an equiv.

The composition of map_equivs is carried over the equiv_functor. For plain functors, this lemma is named map_map when applied or map_comp_map when not applied.
