Abstract
The Eckmann-Hilton argument is an algebraic construction that has important consequences in homotopy theory, implying in particular that the fundamental groups Īn(X,x) of a pointed topological space (X,x) are Abelian for n>1. In the language of higher-category theory, this construction has interesting new variants in higher dimensions: we will tour these variants and their formalisation in the proof-assistant CaTT.
