Braiding for internal categories in the category of whiskered groupoids and simplicial groups

In this work, we define the notion of `braiding' for an internal groupoid in the category of whiskered groupoids and we give a relation between this structure and simplicial groups by using higher order Peiffer elements in the Moore complex of a simplicial group.

Braiding for internal categories in the category of whiskered groupoids and simplicial groups

In this work, we define the notion of `braiding' for an internal groupoid in the category of whiskered groupoids and we give a relation between this structure and simplicial groups by using higher order Peiffer elements in the Moore complex of a simplicial group.
