......@@ -220,41 +220,70 @@ categories to get preorderd Freyd (multi)categories.
%
Further, we will likely (for the models' sake) need to develop
``double'' freyd multicategories as well.
%
To get that, we can use categories \emph{internal} to Mono-categories.
\begin{definition}[Double Mono-Category]
A double Mono Category is a category internal to the category of
Mono categories.
I've had several false starts here.
%
Here's 2 options that are \emph{close}, but no cigar.
I \emph{conjecture} that it is equivalent to a double category of
``loose'' vertical and horizontal arrows, and a sub-double-category
with the same objects.
\end{definition}
First, in analogy with double categories, we could just take
categories internal to Mono-categories, so a span of mono-categories
with identity and unit.
%
However, a span of Mono-categories is not quite right.
%
You have an object mono-category, representing objects and vertical
morphisms, but then your arrows are also a mono-category, so you have
only a \emph{set} of arrows, and tight and loose \emph{squares} and
source and target take tight squares to tight vertical morphisms.
%
So this is definitely not right
To get a preordered Mono category, there are two places to modify the
definition: at Mono, or at category internal to.
Second, instead of looking at $\Set^{\to}$ and its refinement to Mono,
we could start with $\text{Preorder}^{\to}$ or $\text{Cat}^{\to}$ and
refine those somehow.
%
To get the right double category structure for the multicategory
stuff, this is the right order:
I think something here \emph{includes} our categories, but is also too
big. Need to look into this more.
\begin{definition}[Threeorder/3-Valued Preorder/Inclusion of Preorders]
A 3-valued Preorder or inclusion of preorders is a category enriched
in the ordinal 3: $0 \leq 1 \leq 2$, which is a reflective
subcategory of $\text{Set}^{\to}$ defined by taking a set $X$ to the
truth value $\exists x\in X. \top$.
%% To get that, we can use categories \emph{internal} to Mono-categories.
They are equivalent to an object with a ``tight'' and ``loose''
ordering, where tight ordering implies loose ordering.
\end{definition}
%% \begin{definition}[Double Mono-Category]
%% A double Mono Category is a category internal to the category of
%% Mono categories.
\begin{definition}[Threeorder Category/Wide Double Subcategory]
A threeorder category is a category internal to threeorders.
%% I \emph{conjecture} that it is equivalent to a double category of
%% ``loose'' vertical and horizontal arrows, and a sub-double-category
%% with the same objects.
%% \end{definition}
It is equivalent (I think) to a pair of preorder category structures
on the same set of objects, where the preorder structures form a
threeorder, and the category structures form a Mono category.
