Tensoring by the odd line swaps parity #
The odd line is self-dual, so tensoring by it is an equivalence on
Hom-spaces: points of a twisted object are odd elements of the
object. Concretely, 𝟙 ⟶ M ⊗ L and L ⟶ M are the same
ℂ-module, the passage between them being capping the twisting leg
against the square trivialisation. Both directions are visibly
ℂ-linear, composition and whiskering being bilinear, and the two
round trips are the two triangle identities of the self-duality.
The mirror form, with the twist on the left, is obtained from this one by transporting along the braiding.
Feeding the coevaluation into a map out of 𝟙 ⊗ L is the same
as feeding it in on the other side: the unitors and the associator
absorb the difference.
Tensoring by the odd line swaps parity: points of a twisted object are odd elements of the object.

Instances For
Tensoring by the odd line swaps parity, with the twist on the left. Transporting along the braiding reduces this to the right-handed form.
