Review: model categories for type theory Left exact localizations Injective fibrations Some caveats 1 Classical metatheory: ZFC with inaccessible cardinals. 2 Classical homotopy theory: simplicial sets. (It's not clear which cubical sets can even model the (1; 1)-topos of 1-groupoids.) 3 Will not mention \elementary (1; 1)-toposes" (though we can deduce partial results about them by Yoneda embedding). 4 Not the full \internal language hypothesis" that some \homotopy theory of type theories" is equivalent to the homotopy theory of some kind of (1; 1)-category. Only a unidirectional interpretation | in the useful direction! 5 We assume the initiality hypothesis: a \model of type theory" means a CwF. -
Univalent Foundations
Univalent Foundations Talk by Vladimir Voevodsky from Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ. September 21 , 2011 1 Introduction After Goedel's famous results there developed a "schism" in mathemat- ics when abstract mathematics and constructive mathematics became largely isolated from each other with the "abstract" steam growing into what we call "pure mathematics" and the "constructive stream" into what we call theory of computation and theory of programming lan- guages. Univalent Foundations is a new area of research which aims to help to reconnect these streams with a particular focus on the development of software for building rigorously verified constructive proofs and models using abstract mathematical concepts. This is of course a very long term project and we can not see today how its end points will look like. I will concentrate instead its recent history, current stage and some of the short term future plans. 2 Elemental, set-theoretic and higher level mathematics 1. Element-level mathematics works with elements of "fundamental" mathematical sets mostly numbers of different kinds. 2. Set-level mathematics works with structures on sets. 3. What we usually call "category-level" mathematics in fact works with structures on groupoids. It is easy to see that a category is a groupoid level analog of a partially ordered set. 4. Mathematics on "higher levels" can be seen as working with struc- tures on higher groupoids. 3 To reconnect abstract and constructive mathematics we need new foundations of mathematics. The ”official” foundations of mathematics based on Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory with the Axiom of Choice (ZFC) make reasoning about objects for which the natural notion of equivalence is more complex than the notion of isomorphism of sets with structures either very laborious or too informal to be reliable. -

Local Constructive Set Theory and Inductive Definitions
Local Constructive Set Theory and Inductive Definitions Peter Aczel 1 Introduction Local Constructive Set Theory (LCST) is intended to be a local version of con- structive set theory (CST). Constructive Set Theory is an open-ended set theoretical setting for constructive mathematics that is not committed to any particular brand of constructive mathematics and, by avoiding any built-in choice principles, is also acceptable in topos mathematics, the mathematics that can be carried out in an arbi- trary topos with a natural numbers object. We refer the reader to [2] for any details, not explained in this paper, concerning CST and the specific CST axiom systems CZF and CZF+ ≡ CZF + REA. CST provides a global set theoretical setting in the sense that there is a single universe of all the mathematical objects that are in the range of the variables. By contrast a local set theory avoids the use of any global universe but instead is formu- lated in a many-sorted language that has various forms of sort including, for each sort α a power-sort Pα, the sort of all sets of elements of sort α. For each sort α there is a binary infix relation ∈α that takes two arguments, the first of sort α and the second of sort Pα. For each formula φ and each variable x of sort α, there is a comprehension term {x : α | φ} of sort Pα for which the following scheme holds. Comprehension: (∀y : α)[ y ∈α {x : α | φ} ↔ φ[y/x] ]. Here we use the notation φ[a/x] for the result of substituting a term a for free oc- curences of the variable x in the formula φ, relabelling bound variables in the stan- dard way to avoid variable clashes. -
An Outline of Algebraic Set Theory
An Outline of Algebraic Set Theory Steve Awodey Dedicated to Saunders Mac Lane, 1909–2005 Abstract This survey article is intended to introduce the reader to the field of Algebraic Set Theory, in which models of set theory of a new and fascinating kind are determined algebraically. The method is quite robust, admitting adjustment in several respects to model different theories including classical, intuitionistic, bounded, and predicative ones. Under this scheme some familiar set theoretic properties are related to algebraic ones, like freeness, while others result from logical constraints, like definability. The overall theory is complete in two important respects: conventional elementary set theory axiomatizes the class of algebraic models, and the axioms provided for the abstract algebraic framework itself are also complete with respect to a range of natural models consisting of “ideals” of sets, suitably defined. Some previous results involving realizability, forcing, and sheaf models are subsumed, and the prospects for further such unification seem bright. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 3 2 The category of classes 10 2.1 Smallmaps ............................ 12 2.2 Powerclasses............................ 14 2.3 UniversesandInfinity . 15 2.4 Classcategories .......................... 16 2.5 Thetoposofsets ......................... 17 3 Algebraic models of set theory 18 3.1 ThesettheoryBIST ....................... 18 3.2 Algebraic soundness of BIST . 20 3.3 Algebraic completeness of BIST . 21 4 Classes as ideals of sets 23 4.1 Smallmapsandideals . .. .. 24 4.2 Powerclasses and universes . 26 4.3 Conservativity........................... 29 5 Ideal models 29 5.1 Freealgebras ........................... 29 5.2 Collection ............................. 30 5.3 Idealcompleteness . .. .. 32 6 Variations 33 References 36 2 1 Introduction Algebraic set theory (AST) is a new approach to the construction of models of set theory, invented by Andr´eJoyal and Ieke Moerdijk and first presented in [16]. -

Models of Type Theory Based on Moore Paths ∗
Logical Methods in Computer Science Volume 15, Issue 1, 2019, pp. 2:1–2:24 Submitted Feb. 16, 2018 https://lmcs.episciences.org/ Published Jan. 09, 2019 MODELS OF TYPE THEORY BASED ON MOORE PATHS ∗ IAN ORTON AND ANDREW M. PITTS University of Cambridge Department of Computer Science and Technology, UK e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected] Abstract. This paper introduces a new family of models of intensional Martin-L¨oftype theory. We use constructive ordered algebra in toposes. Identity types in the models are given by a notion of Moore path. By considering a particular gros topos, we show that there is such a model that is non-truncated, i.e. contains non-trivial structure at all dimensions. In other words, in this model a type in a nested sequence of identity types can contain more than one element, no matter how great the degree of nesting. Although inspired by existing non-truncated models of type theory based on simplicial and cubical sets, the notion of model presented here is notable for avoiding any form of Kan filling condition in the semantics of types. 1. Introduction Homotopy Type Theory [Uni13] has re-invigorated the study of the intensional version of Martin-L¨oftype theory [Mar75]. On the one hand, the language of type theory helps to express synthetic constructions and arguments in homotopy theory and higher-dimensional category theory. On the other hand, the geometric and algebraic insights of those branches of mathematics shed new light on logical and type-theoretic notions.
