natural transformation from contravariant hom functor as element

1. Proposition

Let 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_985b96adbc801fbbbe00ac354f4e5f9fa2a8c5dd.svg be a locally small category, 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_122ce4a68da0554758a04a0c1ec23a1d496c5806.svg an object and 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_eac3ea8e58b18db70e149c7e9bddd310ac226084.svg a contravariant functor and 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_bde82b79c12ca64998780d2676cd283ea899c4f0.svg the contravariant hom-functor. Then a natural transformation

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_85a80289f8977fb8dcc43015c1dd4e2ae47a1244.svg

is naturally given by an element 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_e56b489dd6d853437c11a0ff5328540d2ca14d3d.svg, hence

2. Proof

we show, that

2.1. construction

2.1.1. a)

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_c032b6dd319cd61b40369a92b89102b52fc5f95c.svg

2.1.2. b)

2.2. welldefined

2.2.1. a)

note that 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_f7047c8f75e08aa4435eba703df43cd380a01ad9.svg is a morphism, hence map with 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_19aad2de4f865050cf7f42017a9fa861588fab24.svg as element in the domain, thus

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_0334f7204b1eb4127f8c377bda842b38ff146596.svg

2.2.2. b)

2.2.2.1. naturality

we get

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_9b058593baba7ff8044fc87aa67711edff68d67c.svg

since by construction, it holds, that

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_6d76c5da6b00064e290f56b868b18d0fa5d23875.svg

we may write (using sloppy notation) 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_dca1552ef1d197cb7a8b93b35799964562bb4be1.svg

Hence it remains to show, that

Since we are working in set, we may element chase, hence for 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_3f3e773aab7c20dd3073855ad7e74e7ed041b57d.svg

where since 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_f9d4fff07675f599df559c5e656b52a1fd42a7f3.svg is contravariant, it holds, that

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_2162e44a4f0d6d8929c83572a0df671f2d0a2770.svg

2.3. bijection

2.3.1. a)

Given a natural transformation 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_24a47b7938ed7e2e4ed3049bcb4fd5502a35fef9.svg, we get

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_b3cb4a1bfbcc459946a7e4c87ec8ce600da06d8e.svg

Here by element chasing for 20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_500f70d8c0c41a1fda40efacb475d6b95744c046.svg and pseudo commutativity of a natural transformation we get

20240102-natural_transformation_from_contravariant_hom_functor_as_precomposition_7bc455312b6b6890db0fa562d6d1b804e387ec06.svg
