Degenerate simplices

Given a simplicial set X and n : ℕ, we define the sets X.degenerate n and X.nonDegenerate n of degenerate or non-degenerate simplices of dimension n.

Any simplex x : X _⦋n⦌ can be written in a unique way as X.map f.op y for an epimorphism f : ⦋n⦌ ⟶ ⦋m⦌ and a non-degenerate m-simplex y (see lemmas exists_nonDegenerate, unique_nonDegenerate_dim, unique_nonDegenerate_simplex and unique_nonDegenerate_map).

def SSet.degenerate (X : SSet) (n : ℕ) : Set (X.obj (Opposite.op (SimplexCategory.mk n)))

An n-simplex of a simplicial set X is degenerate if it is in the range of X.map f.op for some morphism f : [n] ⟶ [m] with m < n.

Equations

• X.degenerate n = {x : X.obj (Opposite.op (SimplexCategory.mk n)) | ∃ (m : ℕ) (_ : m < n) (f : SimplexCategory.mk n ⟶ SimplexCategory.mk m), x ∈ Set.range (X.map f.op)}

def SSet.nonDegenerate (X : SSet) (n : ℕ) : Set (X.obj (Opposite.op (SimplexCategory.mk n)))

The set of n-dimensional non-degenerate simplices in a simplicial set X is the complement of X.degenerate n.

Equations

• X.nonDegenerate n = (X.degenerate n)ᶜ
