Subject: Severe Strict Monoidal Category Naivete
Date: Thu, 02 Dec 2010 09:55:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1POLYs-0002gh-3u@mlist.mta.ca> (raw)

(1) Is strict monoidal category the same as monoid in category of categories?
(2) Is it not true that in a strict monoidal category if
$X\xrightarrow{f}Y\xrightarrow{g}Z$ then $f\square g= g\circ f$?
(3) Is the pentagon axiom automatically satisfied in a strict
monoidal category?

Many thanks for your patience and pointers.
