The simplicial circle as Δ[1]/∂Δ[1] #
Mathlib defines the simplicial circle SSet.S1 as the coequalizer of the two vertex inclusions
Δ[0] ⟶ Δ[1]. This file names its quotient map TauCeti.SSet.S1.quotient, its descent
TauCeti.SSet.S1.desc and its basepoint TauCeti.SSet.S1.basepoint, shows that both vertices
of the interval are sent to the basepoint, and proves TauCeti.SSet.S1.isPushout: the circle is
the pushout of the boundary inclusion ∂Δ[1] ⟶ Δ[1] along the collapse ∂Δ[1] ⟶ Δ[0], i.e. the
interval with its boundary collapsed to the basepoint.
Like Mathlib's SSet.S1, everything in this file lives in universe 0.
The final section equips the interval and circle with their distinguished vertices. It gives
the quotient as a based map and packages its universal property directly in PointedSSet.
The map which collapses the boundary of the simplicial interval to Δ[0].
Instances For
The quotient map from the simplicial interval to the simplicial circle.
Instances For
A map from the simplicial interval which identifies its two vertices descends to the simplicial circle.
Instances For
The descent of f to the circle restricts back to f along the quotient map.
The descent of f to the circle restricts back to f along the quotient map.
The distinguished vertex of the simplicial circle.
Instances For
Both vertices of the simplicial interval map to the basepoint of the circle.
Both vertices of the simplicial interval map to the basepoint of the circle.
The quotient map agrees with the basepoint after collapsing the boundary.
The quotient map agrees with the basepoint after collapsing the boundary.
Maps from the simplicial circle are determined by their composites with the quotient map.
The simplicial circle is Δ[1]/∂Δ[1]: the pushout of the boundary inclusion along the
collapse of the boundary to the basepoint.
The simplicial interval pointed at vertex 1, the image of δ 0. Its underlying
simplicial set is definitionally Δ[1].
Instances For
The simplicial circle pointed at the image of either endpoint of the interval. Its underlying
simplicial set is definitionally Mathlib's SSet.S1.
Instances For
The quotient from the pointed interval to the pointed simplicial circle.
Instances For
A based map from the interval which also sends vertex 0, the image of δ 1, to the
basepoint descends to a based map from the simplicial circle.
Instances For
The underlying map of the based descent is the unpointed circle descent.
Descending a based interval map and then pulling back along the circle quotient recovers the original map.
Based maps out of the simplicial circle are determined by their pullback to the pointed interval.
Based maps from the simplicial circle are equivalent to based maps from the interval which
send vertex 0, the image of δ 1, to the basepoint.
