Theorem 18. Let (๐’ž,โŠ—,I,T,T~(โˆ’|โˆ’,โˆ’),T~(โˆ’,โˆ’|โˆ’))(\mathcal{C},\otimes,I,T,\tilde{T}_{(-|-,-)},\tilde{T}_{(-,-|-)}) be a semistrict braided monoidal 2-category, and let ๐’ตโก(๐’ž)\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C}) be its center. Then there is a braided monoidal 2-functor โ„ฑ:๐’žโ†’๐’ตโก(๐’ž)\mathcal{F}:\mathcal{C}\to\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C}) given as follows:

โ„ฑโก(A)\displaystyle\mathcal{F}(A) =(A,TA,โˆ’,T~(A|โˆ’,โˆ’))\displaystyle=(A,T_{A,-},\tilde{T}_{(A|-,-)})
โ„ฑโก(f)\displaystyle\mathcal{F}(f) =(f,Tf,โˆ’)\displaystyle=(f,T_{f,-})
โ„ฑโก(ฮฑ)\displaystyle\mathcal{F}(\alpha) =ฮฑ\displaystyle=\alpha

Moreover โ„ฑ\mathcal{F} is injective on objects, morphisms and 2-morphisms, and surjective on 2-morphisms.
