#+OPTIONS: num:nil #+AUTHOR: JLH #+AUTHOR: KL * Planning The HoTT Game ** Aims of the HoTT Game - To get mathematicians with no experience in proof verification interested in HoTT and able to use Agda for HoTT - Big-ass-boss: Loop space of S^1 = Z - Try to balance hiding cubical implementations whilst exploiting their advantages ** Barriers - HOLD Installation of emacs - TODO Usage of emacs - TODO General type theoretic foundations - TODO Cubical type theory ** Format - [?] Everything done in .agda files - Partially written code with spaces for participants to fill in + answer files - Levels set out with mini-bosses like in Nat Num Game, but with an overall boss - [?] Side quests - References to Harper lectures and HoTT book ** Content # listing topics we have pursued, NO ordering - emacs usage - agda usage + basic commands (all covered in https://agda.readthedocs.io/en/v2.6.0.1/getting-started/quick-guide.html) + recommend doom emacs + implicit/explicit arguments + holes and inferred types + =_+_= vs =plus__= - type theory basics + meta (judgemental/definitional) equality vs internal (propositional) equality - function extensionality + type formation - inductive types + (side Q) positive and negative constructions of Pi/Sigma types + =data= and =record= + universes + recursors / pattern matching + (side Q) some natural number exercises as early evidence of being able to 'do maths'? + different notions of equivalence - fibers contractable - quasi-inverse - zig-zag + (side Q) types are infinity groupoids + extra paths (univalence, fun ext, HITs) - HoTT + basics - meta interval, identity type vs path type + mention identity type for compatability with other sources, but just use path type - path type on other types - dependent path type PathP vs path over - univalence - the (non)-issue of J in (Cu)TT - =isContr, isProp, isSet= - drawing pictures + Structures, using univalence to transport - transporting results between isomorphic structures + HITs, examples - the constructed interval - booleans and covers - =S^n= - =S^1= with 2 cw structures equiv + Homotopy n-types - homotopy levels being closed under type constructions, in particular Set and ETT inside HoTT + in particular sigma types ** Debriefs - 2021 July 15; Homotopy n-types + watched (Harper) lecture 15 on Sets being closed under type formations ->- motivates showing in Agda Sets closed under Sigma. + Harper does product case, claiming sigma case follows analogously, + attempt proof in Cubical Agda but highly non-obvious how to use that fibers are Sets. + difficulty is that PathP not in one fiber, but PathOver is, AND PathOver <-> PathP NON-obvious + Easy to generalize situation to n-types being closed under Sigma (7.1.8 in HoTT book), we showed this assuming PathPIsoPath ** Mixolydian Bosses + universe classifies bundles ** SuperUltraMegaHyperLydianBosses + natural number object unique and `_+_` unique on any nat num obj + nat num obj unique + `_+_` unique on a model of nat num obj - axiomatize addition on naturals - naturals is a set - fun extensionality - contractability - propositions - propositions closed under sigma types + univalence ** Top 100 (set theoretic) misconceptions about type theory + Propositions + Proof relevance + Propositions are _inside the theory_ + Membership not the same as : + typing is unique (doesn't make sense to intersect two types) + + Though set theory had fewer axioms type theory's assumptions are more intuitive (hence intionistic type theory). There is no fiddling about with membership to construct things e.g. cartesian product + 'we cannot use LEM' ~ not assuming law of excluded middle _globally_ means type theory theorems are stronger! ** Fundamental group of S1 + def of S¹ + a bunch of stuff about ℤ + isoToPath to make ℤ ≡ ℤ + subst + funExt + set-truncation + paths as equality
