Cartesian monoidal categoriesπŸ”—

Unlike with categories and bicategories, there is no handy example of monoidal category that is as canonical as how the collection of all is an However, we do have a certain canonical pool of examples to draw from: all the Cartesian monoidal categories, also known as finite-products categories.

module _
  {o β„“} {C : Precategory o β„“}
  (prods : βˆ€ A B β†’ Product C A B) (term : Terminal C)
  where
  Cartesian-monoidal : Monoidal-category C
  Cartesian-monoidal .-βŠ—- = Γ—-functor
  Cartesian-monoidal .Unit = top

There’s nothing much to say about this result: It’s pretty much just banging out the calculation. Our tensor product functor is the Cartesian product functor, and the tensor unit is the terminal object (the empty product). Associators and units are the evident maps, which are coherent by the properties of limits. Translating this intuitive explanation to a formal proof requires a lot of calculation, however:

Cartesian monoidal categories also inherit a lot of additional structure from the categorical product. In particular, they are symmetric monoidal categories.

  Cartesian-symmetric : Symmetric-monoidal Cartesian-monoidal

We also have a system of diagonal morphisms:
