Extending Homotopy Type Theory with Strict Equality (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Altenkirch, T., Capriotti, P., & Kraus, N. (2016). Extending Homotopy Type Theory with Strict Equality. In 25th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (21:1-21:17). https://doi.org/10.4230/LIPIcs.CSL.2016.21

In homotopy type theory (HoTT), all constructions are necessarily stable under homotopy equivalence. This has shortcomings: for example, it is believed that it is impossible to define a type of semi-simplicial types. More generally, it is difficult a...

We present an internal formalisation of a type heory with dependent types in Type Theory using a special case of higher inductive types from Homotopy Type Theory which we call quotient inductive types (QITs). Our formalisation of type theory avoids r... Read More about Type theory in type theory using quotient inductive types.
