-ary coherence conjecture for polyadic tensor categories
-ary coherence conjecture for polyadic tensor categories
Let be a polyadic tensor category with an -ary tensor product and an -ary associator . The associator is required to satisfy coherence conditions ensuring that the canonical reassociation isomorphism on objects exists:
-ary coherence conjecture. If the -ary associator satisfies such -ary coherence conditions that this isomorphism takes place, then any diagram containing together with the identity morphisms commutes.
This is the proposed higher-arity analogue of coherence for monoidal categories. The source formulates the condition as an anticipated requirement, but supplies no proof or resolution.
