The category of Profinite Types #

We construct the category of profinite topological spaces, often called profinite sets -- perhaps they could be called profinite types in Lean.

The type of profinite topological spaces is called Profinite. It has a category instance and is a fully faithful subcategory of TopCat. The fully faithful functor is called Profinite.toTop.

Implementation notes #

A profinite type is defined to be a topological space which is compact, Hausdorff and totally disconnected.

The category Profinite is defined using the structure CompHausLike. See the file CompHausLike.Basic for more information.

Type (u_1 + 1)

The type of profinite topological spaces.

Instances For
    @[reducible, inline]

    Construct a term of Profinite from a type endowed with the structure of a compact, Hausdorff and totally disconnected topological space.

    Instances For
      @[implicit_reducible]
      @[reducible, inline]

      The fully faithful embedding of Profinite in CompHaus.

      Instances For
        @[reducible, inline]

        The fully faithful embedding of Profinite in TopCat. This is definitionally the same as the obvious composite.

        Instances For

          (Implementation) The object part of the connectedComponents functor from compact Hausdorff spaces to Profinite spaces, given by quotienting a space by its connected components.

          Instances For

            (Implementation) The bijection of homsets to establish the reflective adjunction of Profinite spaces in compact Hausdorff spaces.

            Instances For

              The connectedComponents functor from compact Hausdorff spaces to profinite spaces, left adjoint to the inclusion functor.

              Instances For
                @[implicit_reducible]

                Finite types are given the discrete topology.

                Instances For

                  The natural functor from Fintype to Profinite, endowing a finite type with the discrete topology.

                  Instances For

                    An explicit limit cone for a functor F : J ⥤ Profinite, defined in terms of CompHaus.limitCone, which is defined in terms of TopCat.limitCone.

                    Instances For

                      The adjunction between CompHaus.to_Profinite and Profinite.to_CompHaus

                      Instances For
                        @[implicit_reducible]

                        The category of profinite sets is reflective in the category of compact Hausdorff spaces

                        def Profinite.pi {α : Type u} (β : αProfinite) :

                        The pi-type of profinite spaces is profinite.
