(diagonal of a bisimplicial set)

For X ,X_{\bullet,\bullet} a bisimplicial set, its diagonal is the simplicial set that is the precomposition with the diagonal functor (Id,Id):Δ opΔ op×Δ op(Id, Id) \colon \Delta^{op} \to \Delta^{op} \times \Delta^{op} on the opposite of the simplex category, i.e. the simplicial set with components:

Δ(X) nX n,n. \Delta(X)_n \;\coloneqq\; X_{n,n} \,.
