(Lax) monoidal functors #

A lax monoidal functor F between monoidal categories C and D is a functor between the underlying categories equipped with morphisms

A monoidal functor is a lax monoidal functor for which ε and μ are isomorphisms.

We show that the composition of (lax) monoidal functors gives a (lax) monoidal functor.

See also CategoryTheory.Monoidal.Functorial for a typeclass decorating an object-level function with the additional data of a monoidal functor. This is useful when stating that a pre-existing functor is monoidal.

See CategoryTheory.Monoidal.NaturalTransformation for monoidal natural transformations.

We show in CategoryTheory.Monoidal.Mon_ that lax monoidal functors take monoid objects to monoid objects.

A lax monoidal functor is a functor F : C ⥤ D between monoidal categories, equipped with morphisms ε : 𝟙 _D ⟶ F.obj (𝟙_ C) and μ X Y : F.obj X ⊗ F.obj Y ⟶ F.obj (X ⊗ Y), satisfying the appropriate coherences.
