A Model of Type Theory in Cubical Sets
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a model of type theory with dependent product, sum, and identity, in cubical sets. We describe a universe and explain how to transform an equivalence between two types into an equality. We also explain how to model propositional truncation and the circle. While not expressed internally in type theory, the model is expressed in a constructive metalogic. Thus it is a step towards a computational interpretation of Voevodsky’s Univalence Axiom. 1998 ACM Subject Classification F.4.1 Mathematical Logic, F.3.2 Semantics of Programming Languages

Cubical sets and the topological topos
Coquand’s cubical set model for homotopy type theory provides the basis for a computational interpretation of the univalence axiom and some higher inductive types, as implemented in the cubical proof assistant. This paper contributes to the understanding of this model. We make three contributions: 1. Johnstone’s topological topos was created to present the geometric realization of simplicial se...
متن کاملA Model Of Type Theory In Cubical Sets With Connections
In this thesis we construct a new model of intensional type theory in the category of cubical sets with connections. To facilitate this we introduce the notion of a nice path object category, a simplification of the path object category axioms of [vdBG12] that nonetheless yields the full path object category structure. By defining cubical n-paths and contraction operators upon them we exhibit t...
متن کاملNominal Presentations of the Cubical Sets Model of Type Theory
The cubical sets model of Homotopy Type Theory was introduced by Bezem, Coquand and Huber using a particular category of presheaves. We show that this category is equivalent to a category of sets whose elements have a finite support property with respect to an action of a monoid of name substitutions; and that this is isomorphic to a category of nominal sets equipped with source and target maps...
متن کاملAn Equivalent Presentation of the Bezem-Coquand-Huber Category of Cubical Sets
Staton has shown that there is an equivalence between the category of presheaves on (the opposite of) finite sets and partial bijections and the category of nominal restriction sets: see [2, Exercise 9.7]. The aim here is to see that this extends to an equivalence between the category of cubical sets introduced in [1] and a category of nominal sets equipped with a ‘01-substitution’ operation. I...
متن کاملNominal Presentation of Cubical Sets Models of Type Theory
The cubical sets model of Homotopy Type Theory introduced by Bezem, Coquand and Huber [2] uses a particular category of presheaves. We show that this presheaf category is equivalent to a category of sets equipped with an action of a monoid of name substitutions for which a finite support property holds. That category is in turn isomorphic to a category of nominal sets [15] equipped with operati...
متن کاملCubical Sets as a Classifying Topos∗
Coquand’s cubical set model for homotopy type theory provides the basis for a computational interpretation of the univalence axiom and some higher inductive types, as implemented in the cubical proof assistant. We show that the underlying cube category is the opposite of the Lawvere theory of De Morgan algebras. The topos of cubical sets itself classifies the theory of ‘free De Morgan algebras’...
