Let $X$ be a set.

1. Functoriality I. The assignment $X\mapsto \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright )$ defines a functor
   \[ \mathcal{P}_{*}\colon \mathsf{Sets}\to \mathsf{Sets}, \]

   where

   • Action on Objects. For each $A\in \text{Obj}\webleft (\mathsf{Sets}\webright )$, we have
     \[ \mathcal{P}_{*}\webleft (A\webright )\mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}\mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright ). \]

   • Action on Morphisms. For each $A,B\in \text{Obj}\webleft (\mathsf{Sets}\webright )$, the action on morphisms
     \[ \mathcal{P}_{*|A,B}\colon \mathsf{Sets}\webleft (A,B\webright )\to \mathsf{Sets}\webleft (\mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright ),\mathcal{P}\webleft (B\webright )\webright ) \]

     of $\mathcal{P}_{*}$ at $\webleft (A,B\webright )$ is the map defined by by sending a map of sets $f\colon A\to B$ to the map

     \[ \mathcal{P}_{*}\webleft (f\webright )\colon \mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright )\to \mathcal{P}\webleft (B\webright ) \]

     defined by

     \[ \mathcal{P}_{*}\webleft (f\webright )\mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}f_{*}, \]

     as in Definition 2.6.1.1.1.

2. Functoriality II. The assignment $X\mapsto \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright )$ defines a functor
   \[ \mathcal{P}^{-1}\colon \mathsf{Sets}^{\mathsf{op}}\to \mathsf{Sets}, \]

   where

   • Action on Objects. For each $A\in \text{Obj}\webleft (\mathsf{Sets}\webright )$, we have
     \[ \mathcal{P}^{-1}\webleft (A\webright )\mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}\mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright ). \]

   • Action on Morphisms. For each $A,B\in \text{Obj}\webleft (\mathsf{Sets}\webright )$, the action on morphisms
     \[ \mathcal{P}^{-1}_{A,B}\colon \mathsf{Sets}\webleft (A,B\webright )\to \mathsf{Sets}\webleft (\mathcal{P}\webleft (B\webright ),\mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright )\webright ) \]

     of $\mathcal{P}^{-1}$ at $\webleft (A,B\webright )$ is the map defined by by sending a map of sets $f\colon A\to B$ to the map

     \[ \mathcal{P}^{-1}\webleft (f\webright )\colon \mathcal{P}\webleft (B\webright )\to \mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright ) \]

     defined by

     \[ \mathcal{P}^{-1}\webleft (f\webright )\mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}f^{-1}, \]

     as in Definition 2.6.2.1.1.

3. Functoriality III. The assignment $X\mapsto \mathcal{P}\webleft (X\webright )$ defines a functor
   \[ \mathcal{P}_{!}\colon \mathsf{Sets}\to \mathsf{Sets}, \]

   where

   • Action on Objects. For each $A\in \text{Obj}\webleft (\mathsf{Sets}\webright )$, we have
     \[ \mathcal{P}_{!}\webleft (A\webright )\mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}\mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright ). \]

   • Action on Morphisms. For each $A,B\in \text{Obj}\webleft (\mathsf{Sets}\webright )$, the action on morphisms
     \[ \mathcal{P}_{!|A,B}\colon \mathsf{Sets}\webleft (A,B\webright )\to \mathsf{Sets}\webleft (\mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright ),\mathcal{P}\webleft (B\webright )\webright ) \]

     of $\mathcal{P}_{!}$ at $\webleft (A,B\webright )$ is the map defined by by sending a map of sets $f\colon A\to B$ to the map

     \[ \mathcal{P}_{!}\webleft (f\webright )\colon \mathcal{P}\webleft (A\webright )\to \mathcal{P}\webleft (B\webright ) \]

     defined by

     \[ \mathcal{P}_{!}\webleft (f\webright )\mathrel {\smash {\overset {\mathclap {\scriptscriptstyle \text{def}}}=}}f_{!}, \]

     as in Definition 2.6.3.1.1.
