Subject: Maple program for cubical categories ?
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 1999 10:43:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199907150843.AA01264@irmast1.u-strasbg.fr> (raw)

Bonjour,

I have calculations to do in a cubical omega-category 
(see works of Brown, Higgins, etc... for the definition). 
I have to verify some equalities.
I am wondering whether there is a program (Maple, anything else)
in order to simplify automatically expressions containing 
only the usual operators like the three families of degeneracy 
maps of a cubical set with connections, operations +_j, and the 
usual face maps. 

Every composition of degeneracy maps and face maps can be
ordered with the degeneracy maps of the cubical sets in the
first place (in a canonical order), followed by the connection
maps, followed by the face maps. But I do not see a canonical
way to deal with +_j (because of the interchange law for example).
