Simplicial homotopy
In algebraic topology, a simplicial homotopy is an analog of a homotopy between topological spaces for simplicial sets. If
are maps between simplicial sets, a simplicial homotopy from f to g is a map
such that the obvious diagram (see ) formed by f, g and h commute; the key is to use the diagram that results in and for all x in X.
