Products and tensor products of enriched categories #

If C is enriched in V and D is enriched in W, then C × D is enriched in the product monoidal category V × W: Hom objects, identities and composition are taken componentwise.

When C and D are both enriched in a braided monoidal category V, the tensor product functor MonoidalCategory.tensor V : V × V ⥤ V is monoidal, and transporting the V × V-enrichment of C × D along it gives the tensor product of the two V-categories. Its Hom object from (X, Y) to (X', Y') is (X ⟶[V] X') ⊗ (Y ⟶[V] Y'), its identities are tensor products of identities, and its composition first applies the middle-four interchange MonoidalCategory.tensorμ, which uses the braiding, and then composes in each factor. For categories enriched in cochain complexes the braiding carries the Koszul sign, and this is the tensor product of differential graded categories.

The tensor product of two categories enriched in a braided monoidal category V. The Hom object from (X, Y) to (X', Y') is (X ⟶[V] X') ⊗ (Y ⟶[V] Y'); identities and composition are described by TauCeti.eId_tensor_eq and TauCeti.eComp_tensor_eq. It is the V × V-enrichment TauCeti.prodEnrichedCategory transported along the monoidal functor MonoidalCategory.tensor V.

The Hom object of the tensor product of two enriched categories is the tensor product of the Hom objects of the two factors.

Composition in the tensor product of two enriched categories: interchange the two middle factors with MonoidalCategory.tensorμ, then compose in each factor.
