Chapters 1 and 2 use the rebuild2 formalization. Agda links for Chapter 3 remain temporarily unavailable.
In this chapter, we introduce various fundamental categorical constructions in the setting of synthetic category theory: subcategories and full subcategories, localizations, geometric realizations, exponentiable functors, joins, and slices.
Section 3.1
Subcategories generated by collections of morphisms.
Section 3.2
Full subcategories spanned by collections of objects.
Section 3.3
Inverting morphisms and the localization universal property.
Section 3.4
Realization, groupoid recognition, and objectwise isomorphisms.
Section 3.5
Dependent products, base change, and relative functor categories.
Section 3.6
The two universal properties of joins, their cores, and cones.
Section 3.7
Relative slices and functors into absolute slices.
Section 3.8
Exercises on subcategories, localizations, and dependent products.
