The trivial pointed set is the pointed set $\webleft (\text{pt},\star \webright )$ consisting of:
- The Underlying Set. The punctual set $\text{pt}\mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}\webleft\{ \star \webright\} $.
- The Basepoint. The element $\star $ of $\text{pt}$.
