Indexed products🔗

If a category admits a terminal object and binary products, then it admits products of any finite cardinality: iterate the binary product, and use the terminal object when there aren’t any objects. However, these two classes of limit do not let us speak of products of arbitrary cardinality, or, in the univalent context, indexed by types which are not sets.

That’s where II-indexed products come in: Rather than having a functor giving the objects to take the limit over, we have an arbitrary map FF from II to the space of objects of C\ca{C}. An indexed product for this “diagram” is then an object admitting an universal family of maps πi:(F)Fi\pi_i : (\prod F) \to F_i.

A category C\ca{C} admits indexed products (of level \ell) if, for any type I:Type I : \ty\ \ell and family F:ICF : I \to \ca{C}, there is an indexed product of FF.

As limits🔗

In the particular case where II is a groupoid, e.g. because it arises as the space of objects of a univalent category, an indexed product for F:ICF : I \to \ca{C} is the same thing as a limit over FF, considered as a functor \discIC\disc{I} \to \ca{C}. We can not lift this restriction: If II is not a groupoid, then its path spaces x=yx = y are not necessarily sets, and so the Disc construction does not apply to it.
