Martin-L\"of's identity types provide a generic (albeit opaque) notion of identification or "equality" between any two elements of the same type, embodied in a canonical reflexive graph structure $(=_A, \mathbf{refl})$ on any type $A$. The…

Many introductions to homotopy type theory and the univalence axiom gloss over the semantics of this new formal system in traditional set-based foundations. This expository article, written as lecture notes to accompany a 3-part mini course…

We give a new proof of the straightening/unstraightening correspondence by proving a generalization of the univalence property of the universal coCartesian fibration.

In introductions to the subject for a general audience of mathematicians or logicians, the univalence axiom is typically explained by handwaving. This gives rise to several misconceptions, which cannot be properly addressed in the absence…

We give an elementary construction of a certain class of model structures. In particular, we rederive the Kan model structure on simplicial sets without the use of topological spaces, minimal complexes, or any concrete model of fibrant…

After developing the basic theory of locally cartesian localizations of presentable locally cartesian closed infinity-categories, we establish the representability of equivalences and show that univalent families, in the sense of Voevodsky,…

Wavelet sets that are finite unions of convex sets are constructed in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 2$, for dilation by any expansive matrix that has a power equal to a scalar times the identity and also has all singular values greater than $\sqrt…

We record a particularly simple construction on top of Lumsdaine's local universes that allows for a Coquand-style universe of propositions with propositional extensionality to be interpreted in a category with subobject classifiers.

In this paper, we study equivariant Hurewicz fibrations, obtain their internal characteristics, and prove theorems on relationship between equivariant fibrations and fibrations generated by them. Local and global properties of equivariant…

It is a well-known theorem of homotopy type theory, originally due to Voevodsky, that function extensionality holds inside any univalent universe. We consider a weaker variant of the univalence axiom, asserting that the wild category formed…

This paper presents a type theory in which it is possible to directly manipulate $n$-dimensional cubes (points, lines, squares, cubes, etc.) based on an interpretation of dependent type theory in a cubical set model. This enables new ways…

The Univalence Principle is the statement that equivalent mathematical structures are indistinguishable. We prove a general version of this principle that applies to all set-based, categorical, and higher-categorical structures defined in a…

We discuss some finite homogeneous structures, addressing the question of universality of their automorphism groups. We also study the existence of so-called Kat\v{e}tov functors in finite categories of embeddings or homomorphisms.

We show that if an open set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be fibered by unit $n$-spheres, then $d \geq 2n+1$, and if $d = 2n+1$, then the spheres must be pairwise linked, and $n \in \left\{ 0, 1, 3, 7 \right\}$. For these values of $n$, we…

Defined by a single axiom, finite abstract simplicial complexes belong to the simplest constructs of mathematics. We look at a a few theorems.

We give a model-independent construction of directed univalent cocartesian fibrations of $(\infty,1)$-categories, and prove a straightening equivalence against such fibrations. The key step is showing that cocartesian fibrations descend…

We show that Voevodsky's univalence axiom for intensional type theory is valid in categories of simplicial presheaves on elegant Reedy categories. In addition to diagrams on inverse categories, as considered in previous work of the author,…

We describe a homotopical version of the relational and gluing models of type theory, and generalize it to inverse diagrams and oplax limits. Our method uses the Reedy homotopy theory on inverse diagrams, and relies on the fact that Reedy…

We prove the conjecture that any Grothendieck $(\infty,1)$-topos can be presented by a Quillen model category that interprets homotopy type theory with strict univalent universes. Thus, homotopy type theory can be used as a formal language…

We undertake a systematic study of the notion of fibration in the setting of abstract simplicial complexes, where the concept of `homotopy' has been replaced by that of `contiguity'. Then a fibration will be a simplicial map satisfying the…
