Theorem provers are tools that help users to write machine readable proofs. Some of this tools are also interactive. The need of such softwares is increasing since they provide proofs that are more certified than the hand written ones. Agda…

We introduce a framework for ordinal notation systems, present a family of strong yet simple systems, and give many examples of ordinals in these systems. While much of the material is conjectural, we include systems with conjectured…

The univalence axiom expresses the principle of extensionality for dependent type theory. However, if we simply add the univalence axiom to type theory, then we lose the property of canonicity - that every closed term computes to a…

We show that arithmetical transfinite recursion is equivalent to a suitable formalization of the following: For every ordinal $\alpha$ there exists an ordinal $\beta$ such that $1+\beta\cdot(\beta+\alpha)$ (ordinal arithmetic) admits an…

Containers capture the concept of strictly positive data types in programming. The original development of containers is done in the internal language of locally cartesian closed categories (LCCCs) with disjoint coproducts and W-types, and…

We introduce Voevodsky's univalent foundations and univalent mathematics, and explain how to develop them with the computer system Agda, which is based on Martin-L\"of type theory. Agda allows us to write mathematical definitions,…

We consider the constructive ordinal notation system for the ordinal ${\epsilon_0}$ that were introduced by L.D. Beklemishev. There are fragments of this system that are ordinal notation systems for the smaller ordinals ${\omega_n}$ (towers…

This paper introduces an expressive class of quotient-inductive types, called QW-types. We show that in dependent type theory with uniqueness of identity proofs, even the infinitary case of QW-types can be encoded using the combination of…

In classical set theory, there are many equivalent ways to introduce ordinals. In a constructive setting, however, the different notions split apart, with different advantages and disadvantages for each. We consider three different notions…

In this paper we consider transfinite provability logics where for each ordinal in some recursive well-order we have a corresponding modal provability operator. The modality [xi] will be interpreted as "provable in ACA_0 together with at…

Invertibility is an important concept in category theory. In higher category theory, it becomes less obvious what the correct notion of invertibility is, as extra coherence conditions can become necessary for invertible structures to have…

This study provides some results about two-level type-theoretic notions in a way that the proofs are fully formalizable in a proof assistant implementing two-level type theory such as Agda. The difference from prior works is that these…

Some advantages of Cubical Type Theory, as implemented by Cubical Agda, over intensional Martin-L\"of Type Theory include Quotient Inductive Types (QITs), which exist as instances of Higher Inductive Types, and functional extensionality,…

The paper "Sorting with Bialgebras and Distributive Laws" by Hinze et al. uses the framework of bialgebraic semantics to define sorting algorithms. From distributive laws between functors they construct pairs of sorting algorithms using…

To ensure decidability and consistency of its type theory, a proof assistant should only accept terminating recursive functions and productive corecursive functions. Most proof assistants enforce this through syntactic conditions, which can…

Caucal hierarchy is a well-known class of graphs with decidable monadic theories. It were proved by L. Braud and A. Carayol that well-orderings in the hierarchy are the well-orderings with order types less than $\varepsilon_0$. Naturally,…

In a constructive setting, no concrete formulation of ordinal numbers can simultaneously have all the properties one might be interested in; for example, being able to calculate limits of sequences is constructively incompatible with…

The operational behavior of control operators has been studied comprehensively in the past few decades, but type systems of control operators have not. There are distinct type systems for shift, control, and shift0 without any relationship…
