We define a general class of dependent type theories, encompassing Martin-L\"of's intuitionistic type theories and variants and extensions. The primary aim is pragmatic: to unify and organise their study, allowing results and constructions…

We present an approach to type theory in which the typing judgments do not have explicit contexts. Instead of judgments of shape "Gamma |- A : B", our systems just have judgments of shape "A : B". A key feature is that we distinguish free…

Contextual type theory distinguishes between bound variables and meta-variables to write potentially incomplete terms in the presence of binders. It has found good use as a framework for concise explanations of higher-order unification,…

We introduce basic notions in category theory to type theorists, including comprehension categories, categories with attributes, contextual categories, type categories, and categories with families along with additional discussions that are…

We introduce $\infty$-type theories as an $\infty$-categorical generalization of the categorical definition of type theories introduced by the second named author. We establish analogous results to the previous work including the…

We develop formal theories of conversion for Church-style lambda-terms with Pi-types in first-order syntax using one-sorted variables names and Stoughton's multiple substitutions. We then formalize the Pure Type Systems along some…

Type theories with higher-order subtyping or singleton types are examples of systems where computation rules for variables are affected by type information in the context. A complication for these systems is that bounds declared in the…

We propose an abstract notion of a type theory to unify the semantics of various type theories including Martin-L\"{o}f type theory, two-level type theory and cubical type theory. We establish basic results in the semantics of type theory:…

Infinite types and formulas are known to have really curious and unsound behaviors. For instance, they allow to type {\Omega}, the auto- autoapplication and they thus do not ensure any form of normalization/productivity. Moreover, in most…

A type theory is presented that combines (intuitionistic) linear types with type dependency, thus properly generalising both intuitionistic dependent type theory and full linear logic. A syntax and complete categorical semantics are…

We present a domain-specific type theory for constructions and proofs in category theory. The type theory axiomatizes notions of category, functor, profunctor and a generalized form of natural transformations. The type theory imposes an…

We introduce and study a purely syntactic notion of lax cones and $(\infty,\infty)$-limits on finite computads in \texttt{CaTT}, a type theory for $(\infty,\infty)$-categories due to Finster and Mimram. Conveniently, finite computads are…

We show that a version of Martin-L\"of type theory with an extensional identity type former I, a unit type N1 , Sigma-types, Pi-types, and a base type is a free category with families (supporting these type formers) both in a 1- and a…

At the heart of intuitionistic type theory lies an intuitive semantics called the "meaning explanations"; crucially, when meaning explanations are taken as definitive for type theory, the core notion is no longer "proof" but "verification".…

In this paper, we present an explicit substitution calculus which distinguishes between ordinary bound variables and meta-variables. Its typing discipline is derived from contextual modal type theory. We first present a dependently typed…

We introduce MTT, a dependent type theory which supports multiple modalities. MTT is parametrized by a mode theory which specifies a collection of modes, modalities, and transformations between them. We show that different choices of mode…

One may formulate the dependent product types of Martin-L\"of type theory either in terms of abstraction and application operators like those for the lambda-calculus; or in terms of introduction and elimination rules like those for the…

We describe a non-extensional variant of Martin-L\"of type theory which we call two-dimensional type theory, and equip it with a sound and complete semantics valued in 2-categories.
