Feb 11, 2019 at 5:06 comment added David Roberts @MikeShulman link to your Coq proof?
Feb 3, 2019 at 23:47 comment added Mike Shulman @მამუკაჯიბლაძე Passing to the presheaf category $[D^{\rm op},V]$ introduces all cotensors and the subcategory $C$ is closed under them, just like all other $V$-limits.
Feb 3, 2019 at 22:44 comment added მამუკა ჯიბლაძე Is it obvious that having powers (that is, cotensors) will not require additional restrictions that would damage the counterexample?
Feb 1, 2019 at 0:04 comment added Mike Shulman @FoscoLoregian The exercise is to do the proof. I found it helpful to use a proof assistant to assist me in doing the proof, and others might likewise. In particular, a 5-line tactic script in Coq was able to prove all 625 associativity equations automatically without any thought on my part, saving me a lot of work. (Do that in Agda! (-: ) In fact, when I first defined composition I made a couple of mistakes, so the proof of associativity failed and showed me where the mistakes were. But, if you'd rather write them all out by hand, be my guest. (-:
Jan 31, 2019 at 21:46 comment added fosco Is the exercise about doing the computation without Coq, or rather about coding the proof in Coq?
