## Idea

A coherent dagger 2-poset is a dagger 2-poset whose category of maps is a coherent category.

## Definition

A coherent dagger 2-poset is a dagger 2-poset $C$ such that

• There is an object $0:Ob(C)$ such that for each object $A:Ob(C)$, there is a functional monic map dagger monomorphism$i_{0,A}:Hom(0,A)$ such that for each object i_{0,A}:Hom(0,A) B:Ob(C) such with that a for monic each map object B:Ob(C) i_{B,A}:Hom(B,A) , with there is a functional monic dagger map monomorphism i_{B,A}:Hom(B,A) i_{0,B}:Hom(0,B) , there such is that a functional dagger monomorphism i_{0,B}:Hom(0,B) i_{B,A} \circ i_{0,B} = i_{0,A} such that $i_{B,A} \circ i_{0,B} = i_{0,A}$.

• For each object $A:Ob(C)$, $B:Ob(C)$, $E:Ob(C)$ with functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms$i_{B,A}:Hom(B,A)$, $i_{E,A}:Hom(E,A)$, there is an object $B \cup E:Ob(C)$ with functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms$i_{B \cup E,A}:Hom(B \cup E,A)$, $i_{B,B \cup E}:Hom(B,B \cup E)$, $i_{E,B \cup E}:Hom(E,B \cup E)$, such that $i_{B \cap E,A} \circ i_{B,B \cap E} = i_{B,A}$ and $i_{B \cap E,A} \circ i_{E,B \cap E} = i_{E,A}$,and for every object $D:Ob(C)$ with functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms$i_{D,A}:Hom(D,A)$ $i_{B,D}:Hom(B,D)$, $i_{E,D}:Hom(E,D)$ such that $i_{D,A} \circ i_{B,D} = i_{B,A}$ and $i_{D,A} \circ i_{E,D} = i_{E,A}$ , there is a functional monic dagger map monomorphism$i_{B \cup E,D}:Hom(B \cup E,D)$ such that $i_{D,A} \circ i_{B \cup E,D} = i_{B \cup E,A}$

• For each object $A:Ob(C)$, $B:Ob(C)$, $E:Ob(C)$ with functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms$i_{B,A}:Hom(B,A)$, $i_{E,A}:Hom(E,A)$, there is an object $B \cap E:Ob(C)$ with functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms$i_{B \cap E,A}:Hom(B \cap E,A)$, $i_{B \cap E,B}:Hom(B \cap E,B)$, $i_{B \cap E,E}:Hom(B \cap E,E)$, such that $i_{B,A} \circ i_{B \cap E,B} = i_{B \cap E,A}$ and $i_{E,A} \circ i_{B \cap E,E} = i_{B \cap E,A}$, and for every object $D:Ob(C)$ with functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms$i_{D,A}:Hom(D,A)$ $i_{D,B}:Hom(D,B)$, $i_{D,E}:Hom(D,E)$ such that $i_{B,A} \circ i_{D,B} = i_{D,A}$ and $i_{E,A} \circ i_{D,E} = i_{D,A}$ , there is a functional monic dagger map monomorphism$i_{D,B \cap E}:Hom(D,B \cap E)$ such that $i_{B \cap E,A} \circ i_{D,B \cap E} = i_{D,A}$.

• For each object $A:Ob(C)$, $B:Ob(C)$, $D:Ob(C)$, $E:Ob(C)$ with functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms$i_{B,A}:Hom(B,A)$, $i_{D,A}:Hom(D,A)$, $i_{E,A}:Hom(E,A)$, there is a unitary isomorphism

$j_{B,C,E}:E \cap (B \cup C) \cong^\dagger (E \cap B) \cup (E \cap C)$

## Properties

• For each object $A:Ob(C)$, the identity function $1_A:Hom(A,A)$ is a functional monic dagger map, monomorphism, and for each object$B:Ob(C)$ with a functional monic dagger map monomorphism$i_{B,A}:Hom(B,A)$, $1_A \circ i_{B,A} = i_{B,A}$.

• The unitary isomorphisms classes of functional monic dagger maps monomorphisms into every object$A$ is a distributive lattice . Since every functional monic dagger map monomorphism is a map, thecategory of maps is a coherent category?.

## Examples

The dagger 2-poset of sets and relations is a coherent dagger 2-poset.
