Idea

A square of identifications

           top
       x -------> y
       |          |
  left |          | right
       ∨          ∨
       z -------> w
          bottom

is said to be a commuting square if there is an identification left ∙ bottom = top ∙ right. Such an identification is called a coherence of the square.

Concatenating identifications of edges and coherences of commuting squares of identifications

Consider a commuting square of identifications and an identification of one of the four sides with another identification, as for example in the diagram below:

             top
       a ---------> b
       |           | |
  left |     right |=| right'
       ∨           ∨ ∨
       c ---------> d.
           bottom

Then any identification witnessing that the square commutes can be concatenated with the identification on the side, to obtain a new commuting square of identifications.

Note. To avoid cyclic module dependencies we will give direct proofs that concatenating identifications of edges of a square with the coherence of its commutativity is an equivalence.

Whiskering and splicing coherences of commuting squares of identifications

Given a commuting square of identifications

           top
       x -------> y
       |          |
  left |          | right
       ∨          ∨
       z -------> w,
          bottom

we may consider four ways of attaching new identifications to it:

  1. Prepending p : u = x to the left gives us a commuting square

                 p ∙ top
               u -------> y
               |          |
      p ∙ left |          | right
               ∨          ∨
               z -------> w.
                  bottom
    

    More precisely, we have an equivalence

      (left ∙ bottom = top ∙ right) ≃ ((p ∙ left) ∙ bottom = (p ∙ top) ∙ right).
    
  2. Appending an identification p : w = u to the right gives a commuting square of identifications

                    top
            x ------------> y
            |               |
       left |               | right ∙ p
            ∨               ∨
            z ------------> u.
               bottom ∙ p
    

    More precisely, we have an equivalence

      (left ∙ bottom = top ∙ right) ≃ (left ∙ (bottom ∙ p) = top ∙ (right ∙ p)).
    
  3. Splicing an identification p : z = u and its inverse into the middle gives a commuting square of identifications

                       top
               x --------------> y
               |                 |
      left ∙ p |                 | right
               ∨                 ∨
               u --------------> w.
                  p⁻¹ ∙ bottom
    

    More precisely, we have an equivalence

      (left ∙ bottom = top ∙ right) ≃ ((left ∙ p) ∙ (p⁻¹ ∙ bottom) = top ∙ right).
    

    Similarly, we have an equivalence

      (left ∙ bottom = top ∙ right) ≃ ((left ∙ p⁻¹) ∙ (p ∙ bottom) = top ∙ right).
    
  4. Splicing an identification p : y = u and its inverse into the middle gives a commuting square of identifications

              top ∙ p
           x --------> u
           |           |
      left |           | p⁻¹ ∙ right
           ∨           ∨
           z --------> w.
              bottom
    

    More precisely, we have an equivalence

      (left ∙ bottom = top ∙ right) ≃ (left ∙ bottom = (top ∙ p) ∙ (p⁻¹ ∙ right)).
    

    Similarly, we have an equivalence

      (left ∙ bottom = top ∙ right) ≃ (left ∙ bottom = (top ∙ p⁻¹) ∙ (p ∙ right)).
    

These operations are useful in proofs involving path algebra, because taking equiv-right-whisker-concat-coherence-square-identifications as an example, it provides us with two maps: the forward direction states (p ∙ r = q ∙ s) → (p ∙ (r ∙ t)) = q ∙ (s ∙ t)), which allows one to append an identification without needing to reassociate on the right, and the backwards direction conversely allows one to cancel out an identification in parentheses.

Left whiskering coherences of commuting squares of identifications

For any identification p : u = x we obtain an equivalence

           top                                p ∙ top
       x -------> y                         u -------> y
       |          |                         |          |
  left |          | right    ≃     p ∙ left |          | right
       ∨          ∨                         ∨          ∨
       z -------> w                         z -------> w
          bottom                               bottom
