Dependently typed proof assistant rely crucially on definitional equality, which relates types and terms that are automatically identified in the underlying type theory. This paper extends type theory with definitional functor laws,…

It is well-known that derived equivalences preserve tensor products and trivial extensions. We disprove both constructions for stable equivalences of Morita type.

We develop Morita theory for finitary additive 2-representations of finitary 2-categories. As an application we describe Morita equivalence classes for 2-categories of projective functors associated to finite dimensional algebras and for…

We characterize Morita equivalence of theories in the sense of Johnstone in terms of a new syntactic notion of a common definitional extension developed by Barrett and Halvorson for cartesian, regular, coherent, geometric and first-order…

We give a type system in which the universe of types is closed by reflection into it of the logical relation defined externally by induction on the structure of types. This contribution is placed in the context of the search for a natural,…

We construct a left semi-model structure on the category of intensional type theories (precisely, on $\mathrm{CxlCat_{Id,1,\Sigma(,\Pi_{ext})}}$). This presents an $\infty$-category of such type theories; we show moreover that there is an…

Axiomatic type theory is a dependent type theory without computation rules. The term equality judgements that usually characterise these rules are replaced by computation axioms, i.e., additional term judgements that are typed by identity…

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…

We present a general and user-extensible equality checking algorithm that is applicable to a large class of type theories. The algorithm has a type-directed phase for applying extensionality rules and a normalization phase based on…

We prove a recursive identity involving formal iterated logarithms and formal iterated exponentials. These iterated logarithms and exponentials appear in a natural extension of the logarithmic formal calculus used in the study of…

The concept of_refinement_ in type theory is a way of reconciling the "intrinsic" and the "extrinsic" meanings of types. We begin with a rigorous analysis of this concept, settling on the simple conclusion that the type-theoretic notion of…

Motivated by the resemblance of a multivariate series identity and a finite analogue of Euler's pentagonal number theorem, we study multiple extensions of the latter formula. In a different direction we derive a common extension of this…

In this paper, we define indexed type theories which are related to indexed ($\infty$-)categories in the same way as (homotopy) type theories are related to ($\infty$-)categories. We define several standard constructions for such theories…

We extend the recently introduced setting of coherent differentiation for taking into account not only differentiation, but also Taylor expansion in categories which are not necessarily (left)additive. The main idea consists in extending…

The semantics of extensional type theory has an elegant categorical description: models of extensional =-types, 1-types, and Sigma-types are biequivalent to finitely complete categories, while adding Pi-types yields locally Cartesian closed…

Recent models of intensional type theory have been constructed in algebraic weak factorization systems (AWFSs). AWFSs give rise to comprehension categories that feature non-trivial morphisms between types; these morphisms are not used in…

Logicians and philosophers of science have proposed various formal criteria for theoretical equivalence. In this paper, we examine two such proposals: definitional equivalence and categorical equivalence. In order to show precisely how…
