Idea
A natural isomorphism γ
from map
F : C → D
to G : C → D
is a
natural transformation
from F
to G
such that the morphism γ F : hom (F x) (G x)
is an
isomorphism, for every
object x
in C
.

Examples
The identity natural isomorphism
module _ {l1 l2 l3 l4 : Level} (C : Precategory l1 l2) (D : Precategory l3 l4) where id-natural-isomorphism-map-Precategory : (F : map-Precategory C D) → natural-isomorphism-map-Precategory C D F F pr1 (id-natural-isomorphism-map-Precategory F) = id-natural-transformation-map-Precategory C D F pr2 (id-natural-isomorphism-map-Precategory F) x = is-iso-id-hom-Precategory D
Equalities induce natural isomorphisms
An equality between maps F
and G
gives rise to a natural isomorphism between
them. This is because, by the J-rule, it is enough to construct a natural
isomorphism given refl : F = F
, from F
to itself. We take the identity
natural transformation as such an isomorphism.

Being a natural isomorphism is a proposition
That a natural transformation is a natural isomorphism is a proposition. This follows from the fact that being an isomorphism is a proposition.

The type of natural isomorphisms form a set
The type of natural isomorphisms between maps F
and G
is a
subtype of the set
natural-transformation F G
since being an isomorphism is a proposition.

When the type of natural transformations is a proposition, the type of natural isomorphisms is a proposition
The type of natural isomorphisms between maps F
and G
is a subtype of
natural-transformation F G
, so when this type is a proposition, then the type
of natural isomorphisms from F
to G
form a proposition.
