The pointed mapping simplicial set #
For pointed simplicial sets X and Y, the pointed mapping simplicial set Map_*(X, Y) is the
subcomplex of the internal hom [X, Y] of the underlying simplicial sets consisting of the based
maps. An n-simplex of [X, Y] is a family of maps X_m ⟶ Y_m indexed by the m-simplices of
Δ[n] and natural in m (Mathlib's Functor.HomObj); it is based when every map of the family
sends the basepoint of X to the basepoint of Y. The basepoint of Map_*(X, Y) is the
constant map to the basepoint of Y.
Currying identifies based maps X ∧ Y ⟶ Z out of the smash product with based maps
Y ⟶ Map_*(X, Z), naturally in Y and Z, so the smash product of pointed simplicial sets is a
closed monoidal structure. Consequently X ∧ - is a left adjoint and preserves all colimits; as
the smash product is symmetric, so is - ∧ X, by Mathlib.CategoryTheory.Monoidal.Closed.Braided.
Applied to the simplicial circle S¹, this gives the adjunction S¹ ∧ - ⊣ Map_*(S¹, -) between
simplicial suspension and loops.

The based maps among the simplices of the internal hom [X, Y] of the underlying simplicial

Instances For

Instances For

Currying identifies based maps X ⊗ Y ⟶ Z out of the smash product with based maps
Y ⟶ Map_*(X, Z): a simplex y goes to the based map x ↦ f (x ∧ y).
Instances For
Currying is natural in the source: precomposition with f corresponds to precomposition
with X ◁ f.
Currying is natural in the target: postcomposition with g corresponds to postcomposition
with Map_*(X, g).
