Isomorphisms ¶

This is the Legacy.Base.Homomorphisms.Isomorphisms module of the Agda Universal Algebra Library. Here we formalize the informal notion of isomorphism between algebraic structures.

Recall, we use f ≈ g to denote the assertion that f and g are extensionally (or point-wise) equal; i.e., ∀ x, f x ≡ g x. This notion of equality of functions is used in the following definition of isomorphism between two algebras, say, 𝑨 and 𝑩.


record _≅_ {α b : Level}(𝑨 : Algebra α)(𝑩 : Algebra b) : Type (𝓞 ⊔ 𝓥 ⊔ α ⊔ b) where
 constructor mkiso
 field
  to : hom 𝑨 𝑩
  from : hom 𝑩 𝑨
  to∼from : ∣ to ∣ ∘ ∣ from ∣ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 𝑩 ∣
  from∼to : ∣ from ∣ ∘ ∣ to ∣ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 𝑨 ∣

open _≅_ public

That is, two structures are isomorphic provided there are homomorphisms going back and forth between them which compose to the identity map.

We could define this using Sigma types, like this.

_≅_ : {α b : Level}(𝑨 : Algebra α)(𝑩 : Algebra b) → Type(𝓞 ⊔ 𝓥 ⊔ α ⊔ b)
𝑨 ≅ 𝑩 =  Σ[ f ∈ (hom 𝑨 𝑩)] Σ[ g ∈ hom 𝑩 𝑨 ] ((∣ f ∣ ∘ ∣ g ∣ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 𝑩 ∣) × (∣ g ∣ ∘ ∣ f ∣ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 𝑨 ∣))

However, with four components, an equivalent record type is easier to work with.

Isomorphism is an equivalence relation ¶

≅-trans : Trans (_≅_ {a})(_≅_ {b})(_≅_ {a}{ℓ})

≅fromInjective φ = ≅toInjective (≅-sym φ)

Lift is an algebraic invariant ¶

Fortunately, the lift operation preserves isomorphism (i.e., it's an algebraic invariant). As our focus is universal algebra, this is important and is what makes the lift operation a workable solution to the technical problems that arise from the noncumulativity of Agda's universe hierarchy.


open Level

Lift-≅ : {a b : Level}{𝑨 : Algebra a} → 𝑨 ≅ (Lift-Alg 𝑨 b)
Lift-≅{b = b}{𝑨 = 𝑨} = record  { to = 𝓁𝒾𝒻𝓉 𝑨
                               ; from = 𝓁ℴ𝓌ℯ𝓇 𝑨
                               ; to∼from = ≡.cong-app lift∼lower
                               ; from∼to = ≡.cong-app (lower∼lift {b = b})
                               }

Lift-Alg-iso :  {a b : Level}{𝑨 : Algebra a}{𝓧 : Level}
                {𝑩 : Algebra b}{𝓨 : Level}
 →              𝑨 ≅ 𝑩 → (Lift-Alg 𝑨 𝓧) ≅ (Lift-Alg 𝑩 𝓨)

Lift-Alg-iso A≅B = ≅-trans (≅-trans (≅-sym Lift-≅) A≅B) Lift-≅

Lift associativity ¶

The lift is also associative, up to isomorphism at least.


Lift-Alg-assoc :  (ℓ₁ ℓ₂ : Level) {𝑨 : Algebra a}
 →                Lift-Alg 𝑨 (ℓ₁ ⊔ ℓ₂) ≅ (Lift-Alg (Lift-Alg 𝑨 ℓ₁) ℓ₂)

Lift-Alg-assoc ℓ₁ ℓ₂ {𝑨} = ≅-trans (≅-trans Goal Lift-≅) Lift-≅
 where
 Goal : Lift-Alg 𝑨 (ℓ₁ ⊔ ℓ₂) ≅ 𝑨
 Goal = ≅-sym Lift-≅

Products preserve isomorphisms ¶

Products of isomorphic families of algebras are themselves isomorphic. The proof looks a bit technical, but it is as straightforward as it ought to be.


module _ {a b ι : Level}{I : Type ι}{fiu : funext ι a}{fiw : funext ι b} where

  ⨅≅ :  {𝒜 : I → Algebra a}{ℬ : I → Algebra b}
   →     (∀ (i : I) → 𝒜 i ≅ ℬ i) → ⨅ 𝒜 ≅ ⨅ ℬ

  ⨅≅ {𝒜}{ℬ} AB = record  { to = ϕ , ϕhom ; from = ψ , ψhom
                         ; to∼from = ϕ∼ψ ; from∼to = ψ∼ϕ
                         }
   where
   ϕ : ∣ ⨅ 𝒜 ∣ → ∣ ⨅ ℬ ∣
   ϕ a i = ∣ to (AB i) ∣ (a i)

   ϕhom : is-homomorphism (⨅ 𝒜) (⨅ ℬ) ϕ
   ϕhom 𝑓 a = fiw (λ i → ∥ to (AB i) ∥ 𝑓 (λ x → a x i))

   ψ : ∣ ⨅ ℬ ∣ → ∣ ⨅ 𝒜 ∣
   ψ b i = ∣ from (AB i) ∣ (b i)

   ψhom : is-homomorphism (⨅ ℬ) (⨅ 𝒜) ψ
   ψhom 𝑓 𝒃 = fiu (λ i → ∥ from (AB i) ∥ 𝑓 (λ x → 𝒃 x i))

   ϕ∼ψ : ϕ ∘ ψ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 (⨅ ℬ) ∣
   ϕ∼ψ 𝒃 = fiw λ i → to∼from (AB i) (𝒃 i)

   ψ∼ϕ : ψ ∘ ϕ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 (⨅ 𝒜) ∣
   ψ∼ϕ a = fiu λ i → from∼to (AB i)(a i)

A nearly identical proof goes through for isomorphisms of lifted products (though, just for fun, we use the universal quantifier syntax here to express the dependent function type in the statement of the lemma, instead of the Pi notation we used in the statement of the previous lemma; that is, ∀ i → 𝒜 i ≅ ℬ (lift i) instead of Π i ꞉ I , 𝒜 i ≅ ℬ (lift i).)


module _ {a b γ ι  : Level}{I : Type ι}{fizw : funext (ι ⊔ γ) b}{fiu : funext ι a} where

  Lift-Alg-⨅≅ :  {𝒜 : I → Algebra a}{ℬ : (Lift γ I) → Algebra b}
   →             (∀ i → 𝒜 i ≅ ℬ (lift i)) → Lift-Alg (⨅ 𝒜) γ ≅ ⨅ ℬ

  Lift-Alg-⨅≅ {𝒜}{ℬ} AB = Goal
   where
   ϕ : ∣ ⨅ 𝒜 ∣ → ∣ ⨅ ℬ ∣
   ϕ a i = ∣ to (AB  (lower i)) ∣ (a (lower i))

   ϕhom : is-homomorphism (⨅ 𝒜) (⨅ ℬ) ϕ
   ϕhom 𝑓 a = fizw (λ i → (∥ to (AB (lower i)) ∥) 𝑓 (λ x → a x (lower i)))

   ψ : ∣ ⨅ ℬ ∣ → ∣ ⨅ 𝒜 ∣
   ψ b i = ∣ from (AB i) ∣ (b (lift i))

   ψhom : is-homomorphism (⨅ ℬ) (⨅ 𝒜) ψ
   ψhom 𝑓 𝒃 = fiu (λ i → ∥ from (AB i) ∥ 𝑓 (λ x → 𝒃 x (lift i)))

   ϕ∼ψ : ϕ ∘ ψ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 (⨅ ℬ) ∣
   ϕ∼ψ 𝒃 = fizw λ i → to∼from (AB (lower i)) (𝒃 i)

   ψ∼ϕ : ψ ∘ ϕ ≈ ∣ 𝒾𝒹 (⨅ 𝒜) ∣
   ψ∼ϕ a = fiu λ i → from∼to (AB i) (a i)

   A≅B : ⨅ 𝒜 ≅ ⨅ ℬ
   A≅B = record { to = ϕ , ϕhom ; from = ψ , ψhom ; to∼from = ϕ∼ψ ; from∼to = ψ∼ϕ }

   Goal : Lift-Alg (⨅ 𝒜) γ ≅ ⨅ ℬ
   Goal = ≅-trans (≅-sym Lift-≅) A≅B
