Locally discrete bicategories #

A category C can be promoted to a strict bicategory LocallyDiscrete C. The objects and the 1-morphisms in LocallyDiscrete C are the same as the objects and the morphisms, respectively, in C, and the 2-morphisms in LocallyDiscrete C are the equalities between 1-morphisms. In other words, the category consisting of the 1-morphisms between each pair of objects X and Y in LocallyDiscrete C is defined as the discrete category associated with the type X ⟶ Y.

A wrapper for promoting any category to a bicategory, with the only 2-morphisms being equalities.

Extract the equation from a 2-morphism in a locally discrete 2-category.

The locally discrete bicategory on a category is a bicategory in which the objects and the 1-morphisms are the same as those in the underlying category, and the 2-morphisms are the equalities between 1-morphisms.

A bicategory is locally discrete if the categories of 1-morphisms are discrete.
