Monoids and Comonoids

Here we define a monoid internal to a monoidal category. Note that we don't actually need the full monoidal structure so we assume only the parts we need. This allows us to keep the definitions general between various flavours of monoidal category.
Many algebraic theories such as groups and rings may also be internalized, however these specifically require a cartesian monoidal structure. The theory of monoids however has no such requirement and can therefore be developed in much greater generality. This can be used to define a range of objects such as R-algebras, H-spaces, Hopf algebras and more.

Monoid objects

An object x of A is a monoid object if it comes with the following data:
  Class IsMonoidObject (x : A) := {
    
A multiplication map from the tensor product of x with itself to x.
    mo_mult : tensor x x $-> x;
    
A unit of the multplication.
    mo_unit : unit $-> x;
    
The multiplication map is associative.
The multiplication map is left unital.
The multiplication map is right unital.
An object x of A is a commutative monoid object if:
  Class IsCommutativeMonoidObject (x : A) := {
    
It is a monoid object.
    cmo_mo :: IsMonoidObject x;
    
The multiplication map is commutative.
    cmo_comm : mo_mult $o braid x x $== mo_mult;
  }.

End MonoidObject.

Arguments IsMonoidObject {A} tensor unit {_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _} x.
Arguments IsCommutativeMonoidObject {A} tensor unit {_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _} x.
