\section{Free Objects}
Free objects are constructions capturing the essence of structures in a minimal way, we will rely on free structures in chapter~\ref{chp:iteration} to define a monad in a general setting. We recall the definition to establish some notation:
\todo[inline]{Definition of free objects}
\begin{definition}[Free Object]
Let $\mathcal{C}, \mathcal{D}$ be categories and $U : C \rightarrow D$ a forgetful functor (whose construction usually is obvious). A free object on some object $X \in \mathcal{D}$ is an object $FX \in \mathcal{C}$ together with a morphism $\eta : X \rightarrow UFX$ such that the following universal property holds for any $Y \in \obj{C}$ and $f : X \rightarrow UY$:

There are many formalizations of category theory in proof assistants like Coq or Agda. The benefits are clear, having a usable formalization allows one to reason about categorical notions in a typechecked environment that makes errors less likely.
Also ideally such a development will bring researchers together and enable them to work in a unified setting.
In this thesis we will work with the dependently typed programming language Agda~\cite{agda} and the agda-categories~\cite{agda-categories} library by Jason Hu and Jacques Carette that gives us a good foundation of categorical definitions to work with.
This chapter shall serve as a quick introduction to the library and the formalization of this thesis.

We will usually refer to right-stable free Elgot algebras as just stable Elgot algebras.
Stability of $KX$ expresses that it somehow behaves like it would in a cartesian closed category, the following theorem should then follow trivially:
\todo[inline]{proof that KX stable in CCC}
\begin{theorem}
In a cartesian closed category every free Elgot algebra is stable.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Let $X \in \obj{C}$ and $((KX, (-)^\#), \llbracket - \rrbracket)$ be a free Elgot algebra on $X$.
We will show that $KX$ is left-stable, i.e. given $X \in \obj{C}, A \in \vert\mathit{Elgot}(\mathcal{C})\vert$ and $f : Y \times X \rightarrow A$ we define
$f^{\sharp_l} := eval \circ (\llbracket curry\;f \rrbracket \times id)$.
Note that we are using the universal property of a free object over $\textit{Elgot}(\mathcal{C})$ which when spelled out requires us to show that $A^X$ is an Elgot algebra, for that we reference lemma~\ref{lem:elgotexp}.
\ref{sharpl1} and \ref{sharpl2} then follow by properties of the exponential and of distributive categories, uniqueness is more interesting:
Let $g : KY \times X \rightarrow A$ be a morphism satisfying \ref{sharpl1} and \ref{sharpl2}, we need to show that $g = eval \circ (\llbracket curry\;f \rrbracket \times id)$. We use that fact that $curry$ is an injective mapping, i.e. it suffices to show that:
\[curry\; g = \llbracket curry\;f \rrbracket = curry (eval \circ (\llbracket curry\;f \rrbracket \times id))\]
Where the second step holds for any exponential and the first step is proven by the universal property of free objects, i.e. we need to show that $curry\;g \circ \eta = curry\;f$ which follows by \ref{sharpl1} and we need to check that $curry\;g$ is left iteration preversing which follows from \ref{sharpl2}.
TODO
\end{proof}
For the rest of this chapter we will assume every $KX$ to exist and be stable to show that it is an equational lifting monad and in fact the initial strong pre-Elgot monad.
\todo[inline]{proof that K is strong and commutative}
Before proving strength, we will introduce a proof principle similar to remark~\ref{rem:coinduction}.
\todo[inline]{proof that K is equational lifting}
\begin{remark}[Proof by stability]~\label{rem:proofbystability}
Given two morphisms $g, h : X \times KY \rightarrow A$ where $X, Y \in \obj{C}, A \in \elgotobj{C}$ to show that $g = h$ it suffices to find a morphism $f : X \times Y \rightarrow A$ such that $g$ and $h$ satisfy \ref{sharpr1} and \ref{sharpr2}.
\end{remark}
Of course there is also a symmetric version of this:
\begin{remark}[Proof by left-stability]~\label{rem:proofbyleftstability}
Given two morphisms $g, h : KY \times X \rightarrow A$ where $X, Y \in \obj{C}, A \in \elgotobj{C}$ to show that $g = h$ it suffices to find a morphism $f : Y \times X \rightarrow A$ such that $g$ and $h$ satisfy \ref{sharpl1} and \ref{sharpl2}.
\end{remark}
\begin{theorem}
$\mathbf{K}$ is a strong monad.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
We define strength as $\tau : (\eta : X \times Y \rightarrow K(X \times Y))^\sharp : X \times KY \rightarrow K(X \times Y)$
To check naturality and the strength laws we will use remark~\ref{rem:proofbystability} and for brevity only state the needed unifying morphism by pasting \ref{sharpl1} into the required diagram. The proofs of \ref{sharpr1} and \ref{sharpr2} can then be looked up in the formalization.
