Sections of a displayed category🔗

A section of a displayed category consists of a functorial assignment of objects and morphisms

In other words, a section of a displayed category is a vertical functor from the identity bifibration of to We restate the definition in elementary terms to drop the additional unit arguments.

  record Section : Type (o ⊔ ℓ ⊔ o' ⊔ ℓ') where
    no-eta-equality
    field
      S₀ : ∀ x → E ʻ x
      S₁ : ∀ {x y} (f : B.Hom x y) → E.Hom[ f ] (S₀ x) (S₀ y)

      S-id : ∀ {x} → S₁ {x} {x} B.id ≡ E.id'
      S-∘
        : ∀ {x y z} (f : B.Hom y z) (g : B.Hom x y)
        → S₁ (f B.∘ g) ≡ S₁ f E.∘' S₁ g
The equivalence with vertical functors from the identity bifibration is a trivial matter of data repackaging.

We can also specialise the notion of vertical natural transformation to work with sections instead.
