Homotopy Type Theory H-space > history (Rev #1)

Definition

A H-Space consists of

• A type $A$,
• A basepoint $e:A$
• A binary operation $\mu : A \to A \to A$
• for every $a:A$, equalities $\mu(e,a)=a$ and $\mu(a,e)=a$

Lemma

Let $A$ be a connected H-space. Then for every $a:A$, the maps $\mu(a,-),\mu(-,a):A \to A$ are equivalences.
