Idea

Given two maps, f : A → X and g : B → Y, we say that f has the mere left lifting property with respect to g and that g has the mere right lifting property with respect to f if the pullback-hom is surjective. This means that the type of lifting operations between f and g is merely inhabited.

Definition

module _
  {l1 l2 l3 l4 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : UU l2} {X : UU l3} {Y : UU l4}
  (f : A → X) (g : B → Y)
  where

  mere-diagonal-lift : UU (l1 ⊔ l2 ⊔ l3 ⊔ l4)
  mere-diagonal-lift = is-surjective (pullback-hom f g)

Properties

Mere lifting properties are properties

module _
  {l1 l2 l3 l4 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : UU l2} {X : UU l3} {Y : UU l4}
  (f : A → X) (g : B → Y)
  where

  is-prop-mere-diagonal-lift : is-prop (mere-diagonal-lift f g)
  is-prop-mere-diagonal-lift = is-prop-is-surjective (pullback-hom f g)

  mere-diagonal-lift-Prop : Prop (l1 ⊔ l2 ⊔ l3 ⊔ l4)
  mere-diagonal-lift-Prop = is-surjective-Prop (pullback-hom f g)
