Topology of fundamental group #

In this file we define a natural topology on the automorphism group of a functor F : C ⥤ FintypeCat: It is defined as the subspace topology induced by the natural embedding of Aut F into ∀ X, Aut (F.obj X) where Aut (F.obj X) carries the discrete topology.

References #

For a functor F : C ⥤ FintypeCat, the canonical embedding of Aut F into the product over Aut (F.obj X) for all objects X.

    The image of Aut F in ∀ X, Aut (F.obj X) are precisely the compatible families of automorphisms.

    If H is an open subset of Aut F such that 1 ∈ H, there exists a finite set I of connected objects of C such that every σ : Aut F that induces the identity on F.obj X for all X ∈ I is contained in H. In other words: The kernel of the evaluation map Aut F →* ∏ X : I ↦ Aut (F.obj X) is contained in H.
