The main objective of this work is to study mathematical properties of computational paths. Originally proposed by de Queiroz \& Gabbay (1994) as `sequences of rewrites', computational paths can be seen as the grounds on which the…
We introduce a new way of formalizing the intensional identity type based on the fact that a entity known as computational paths can be interpreted as terms of the identity type. Our approach enjoys the fact that our elimination rule is…
The treatment of equality as a type in type theory gives rise to an interesting type-theoretic structure known as `identity type'. The idea is that, given terms $a,b$ of a type $A$, one may form the type $Id_{A}(a,b)$, whose elements are…
One of the most interesting entities of homotopy type theory is the identity type. It gives rise to an interesting interpretation of the equality, since one can semantically interpret the equality between two terms of the same type as a…
Lumsdaine (2010) and van den Berg-Garner (2011) proved that types in Martin-L\"of type theory carry the structure of weak {\omega}-groupoids. Their proofs, while foundational, rely on abstract properties of the identity type without…
Computational paths treat propositional equality as explicit paths built from labelled deduction steps and rewrite rules. This view originates in work by de Queiroz and collaborators [1] and yields a weak groupoid structure for equality,…

In Martin-L\"of's Intensional Type Theory, identity type is a heavily used and studied concept. The reason for that is the fact that it's responsible for the recently discovered connection between Type Theory and Homotopy Theory. The main…
In proof theory the notion of canonical proof is rather basic, and it is usually taken for granted that a canonical proof of a sentence must be unique up to certain minor syntactical details (such as, e.g., change of bound variables). When…
This is the fourth in a series of papers extending Martin-L\"of's meaning explanation of dependent type theory to higher-dimensional types. In this installment, we show how to define cubical type systems supporting a general schema of…
The homotopical approach to intensional type theory views proofs of equality as paths. We explore what is required of an object $I$ in a topos to give such a path-based model of type theory in which paths are just functions with domain $I$.…
A new approach to the semantics of identity types in intensional Martin-L\"of type theory is proposed, assuming only a category with finite limits and an interval. The specification of \emph{extensional} identity types in the original…
Brouwer's constructivist foundations of mathematics is based on an intuitively meaningful notion of computation shared by all mathematicians. Martin-L\"of's meaning explanations for constructive type theory define the concept of a type in…
We develop realizability models of intensional type theory, based on groupoids, wherein realizers themselves carry non-trivial (non-discrete) homotopical structure. In the spirit of realizability, this is intended to formalize a homotopical…
Homotopy type theory is an interpretation of Martin-L\"of's constructive type theory into abstract homotopy theory. There results a link between constructive mathematics and algebraic topology, providing topological semantics for…
When the theory of Leavitt path algebras was already quite advanced, it was discovered that some of the more difficult questions were susceptible to a new approach using topological groupoids. The main result that makes this possible is…
We use a labelled deduction system ( LND$_{ED-}$TRS ) based on the concept of computational paths (sequences of rewrites) as equalities between two terms of the same type, which allowed us to carry out in homotopic theory an approach using…
This is the second in a series of papers extending Martin-L\"{o}f's meaning explanation of dependent type theory to account for higher-dimensional types. We build on the cubical realizability framework for simple types developed in Part I,…
This paper introduces a new family of models of intensional Martin-L\"of type 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,…
In this paper, we first briefly survey automated termination proof methods for higher-order calculi. We then concentrate on the higher-order recursive path ordering, for which we provide an improved definition, the Computability Path…
