\section{Leibniz Construction}
We will see use a well know construction in homotopy theory, to
elegantly construct a lot of interesting objects, the Leibniz construction.
This section will recall the definition establish some facts and give some examples.
There are multiple
We start be giving the definition
\begin{definition}[Leibniz Construction]
Let \(\A\), \(\B\) and \(\C\) be categories and \(\C\) has finite pushouts. Let \(⊗ : \A × \B\C \) be a bifunctor.
Then we define \(\hat{} : \arr{\A} × \arr{\B}\arr{\C}\) to defined as follows. Given \(f : A → A' \) in \(\A\) and
\( g : B → B' \) in \(\B\), then \( f \hat{} g \) is defined as in the following diagram.\\
\begin{equation*}
\begin{tikzcd}
A ⊗ B \arrow[r, "f ⊗ \id"] \arrow[d, "\id ⊗ g"] \arrow[dr, phantom, "\ulcorner", very near end] & A' ⊗ \mathrlap{B} \phantom{A'} \arrow[ddr, bend left, "\id ⊗ g"] \arrow[d] & \\
\phantom{B'} \mathllap{A} ⊗ B' \arrow[drr, bend right, "f ⊗ \id"] \arrow[r] & A ⊗ B' ∐\limits_{A ⊗ B} A' ⊗ B \arrow[dr, dashed ,"f \hat{⊗} g"] & \\
& & A' ⊗ B'
\end{tikzcd}
\end{equation*}
\end{definition}
When the bifunctor is the cartesian product functor, this construction is also known as the \emph{pushout-product}.
Now we will give some examples, some of them instructive and some that will appear later again.
\begin{example}
Let \(\C\) be your favourite category of spaces, \( × \) the cartesian product and \(f = g\) be the
inclusion of the point into the start of the interval. Then the pushout-product \(f \hat{×} g \) is the inclusion of
two adjacents sides of a square, into that square.
\end{example}
Or a bit more general
\begin{example}\label{Leibniz:Ex:OpenBox}
Let \(\C\) be your favourite category of spaces, \( × \) the cartesian poduct. Let \(f\) be the
inclusion of one endpoint into the interval. Let \(g : ∂\I^n → \I^n \) be the boundary inclusion into
the \(n\)-cube. Then \(f \hat{×} \) is the filling of an \(n\) dimensional open box.
\end{example}
\begin{example}
Let \(\C\) be your favourite category of spaces, and \( @ : \C^{\C} × \C\C \) defined as
\( F @ x ≔ F(x)\) the functor application functor. Let \(\I()\) be a functorial cylinder and \(i_0\).
be one of the inclusions \( i_0 : \Id\I() \) and \( ∂X → X \) be the boundery inclusion of \(X\).
Then \( i_0 \hat{@} (∂X → X) \) is the filling of a cylinder with one base surface of shape \(X\).
\end{example}
As we will come across this example multiple times it will get some special syntax.
