Towards a Homotopy Domain Theory

Abstract

An appropriate framework is put forward for the construction of λ\lambda-models with \infty-groupoid structure, which we call \textit{homotopic λ\lambda-models}, through the use of an \infty-category with cartesian closure and enough points. With this, we establish the start of a project of generalization of Domain Theory and λ\lambda-calculus, in the sense that the concept of proof (path) of equality of λ\lambda-terms is raised to \textit{higher proof} (homotopy).
