Homotopy Type Theory
Univalent Foundations of Mathematics
“Homotopy type theory is a new branch of
mathematics that combines aspects of several
different fields in a surprising way. It is based on a
recently discovered connection between homotopy
theory and type theory. It touches on topics as
seemingly distant as the homotopy groups of spheres,
the algorithms for type checking, and the definition of
weak ∞-groupoids.”

. . . the study of n-truncated homotopy types (of
semisimplicial sets, or of topological spaces) [should
be] essentially equivalent to the study of so-called
n-groupoids. . . . This is expected to be achieved by
associating to any space (say) X its “fundamental
n-groupoid” Πn(X).... The obvious idea is that
0-objects of Πn(X) should be the points of X,
1-objects should be “homotopies” or paths between
points, 2-objects should be homotopies between
1-objects, etc.

“From an observation by Grothendieck:
Formalism of higher equivalences (theory of grupoids)
=
Homotopy theory (theory of shapes up to a
deformation)
Combined with some other ideas it: leads to an encoding of
mathematics in terms of the homotopy theory. Unlike the usual
encodings in terms of the set theory this one respects
equivalences.”

Equality as a Structure, not a Relation
Vladimir Voevodsky
“An equality between two abstract sets is not a relation but a
structure. It is not expressed by an assertion of a proposition
but by presenting an element of a set of possible equalities.
For example, the abstract sets corresponding to the sets {A, B}
and {C, D} can be equal either through the correspondence
that takes A to C and B to D or through the one that takes A to
D and B to C. This is one of the ways in which abstract sets are
not “things”.”

Type Theory and Equality
Four Judgements
In type theory, there are 4 kinds of judgements:
1 A type
2 x : A
3 x = y : A
4 A = B
Via the so-called Curry-Howard interpretation, “x : A” can be read as
“x is a proof of proposition A”.
Also, “x = y : A” can be read as “x and y are (definitionally) equal
proofs of proposition A”.
What about the judgement of “p is a proof of the statement that x and
y are equal elements of type A”? This is where the so-called Identity
type comes into the picture:
p : IdA(x, y)

Type Theory and its Derivations-as-Terms
Interpretation
Howard on Curry-Howard
“ [de Bruijn] discovered the idea of derivations as
terms, and the accompanying idea of
formulae-as-types, on his own. (...)
Martin-L¨of suggested that the derivations-as-terms
idea would work particularly well in connection with
Prawitz’s theory of natural deduction.” (W.Howard,
Wadler’s Blog, 2014)
Since the early 1990’s, our focus has been on insisting on the
derivations-as-terms perspective, especially wrt to
propositional equality.

Type Theory and Homotopy Theory
Steve Awodey
“The purpose of this informal survey article is to introduce the
reader to a new and surprising connection between Geometry,
Algebra, and Logic, which has recently come to light in the form
of an interpretation of the constructive type theory of Per
Martin-L¨of into homotopy theory, resulting in new examples of
certain algebraic structures which are important in topology.
This connection was discovered quite recently, and various
aspects of it are now under active investigation by several
researchers.”

Algebraic Structure: Groupoids
Steve Awodey
“A groupoid is like a group, but with a partially-defined
composition operation. Precisely, a groupoid can be defined as
a category in which every arrow has an inverse. A group is thus
a groupoid with only one object. Groupoids arise in topology as
generalized fundamental groups, not tied to a choice of
basepoint.”

What is a proof of an equality statement?
What is the formal counterpart of a proof of an equality?
In talking about proofs of an equality statement, two dichotomies
arise:
1 definitional equality versus propositional equality
2 intensional equality versus extensional equality

Identity Types
Identity Types - Topological and Categorical Structure
Workshop, Uppsala, November 13–14, 2006
“The identity type, the type of proof objects for the
fundamental propositional equality, is one of the most
intriguing constructions of intensional dependent type
theory (also known as Martin-L¨of type theory). Its
complexity became apparent with the Hofmann–Streicher
groupoid model of type theory. This model also hinted at
some possible connections between type theory and
homotopy theory and higher categories. Exploration of this
connection is intended to be the main theme of the
workshop.”

Identity Types
Type Theory and Homotopy Theory
Indeed, a whole new research avenue has since 2005 been explored
by people like Vladimir Voevodsky and Steve Awodey in trying to
make a bridge between type theory and homotopy theory, mainly via
the groupoid structure exposed in the Hofmann–Streicher (1994)
countermodel to the principle of Uniqueness of Identity Proofs (UIP).
In Hofmann & Streicher’s own words,
“We give a model of intensional Martin-L¨of type theory
based on groupoids and fibrations of groupoids in which
identity types may contain two distinct elements which are
not even propositionally equal. This shows that the principle
of uniqueness of identity proofs is not derivable in the
syntax”. (“LICS ’94, pp. 208–212.)

Identity Types
Identity Types as Topological Spaces
According to B. van den Berg and R. Garner (“Topological and
simplicial models of identity types”, ACM Transactions on
Computational Logic, Jan 2012),
“All of this work can be seen as an elaboration of the
following basic idea: that in Martin-L¨of type theory, a type A
is analogous to a topological space; elements a, b ∈ A to
points of that space; and elements of an identity type
p, q ∈ IdA(a, b) to paths or homotopies p, q : a → b in A.”.

Identity Types
Identity Types as Topological Spaces
From the Homotopy type theory collective book (2013):
“In type theory, for every type A there is a (formerly
somewhat mysterious) type IdA of identifications of two
objects of A; in homotopy type theory, this is just the path
space AI
of all continuous maps I → A from the unit
interval. In this way, a term p : IdA(a, b) represents a path
p : a b in A.”

Identity Types: Iteration
From Propositional to Predicate Logic and Beyond
In the same aforementioned workshop, B. van den Berg in his
contribution “Types as weak omega-categories” draws attention to the
power of the identity type in the iterating types to form a globular set:
“Fix a type X in a context Γ. Define a globular set as follows:
A0 consists of the terms of type X in context Γ,modulo
definitional equality; A1 consists of terms of the types
Id(X; p; q) (in context Γ) for elements p, q in A0, modulo
definitional equality; A2 consists of terms of well-formed
types Id(Id(X; p; q); r; s) (in context Γ) for elements p, q in
A0, r, s in A1, modulo definitional equality; etcetera...”

The homotopy interpretation
Here is how we can see the connections between proofs of equality
and homotopies:
a, b : A
p, q : IdA(a, b)
α, β : IdIdA(a,b)(p, q)
· · · : IdIdId...
(· · · )
Now, consider the following interpretation:
Types Spaces
Terms Maps
a : A Points a : 1 → A
p : IdA(a, b) Paths p : a ⇒ b
α : IdIdA(a,b)(p, q) Homotopies α : p q

Univalent Foundations of Mathematics
From Vladimir Voevodsky (IAS, Princeton) “Univalent
Foundations: New Foundations of Mathematics”, Mar 26, 2014:
“There were two main problems with the existing
foundational systems which made them inadequate.
Firstly, existing foundations of mathematics were
based on the languages of Predicate Logic and
languages of this class are too limited.
Secondly, existing foundations could not be used to
directly express statements about such objects as, for
example, the ones that my work on 2-theories was
about.”

From Vladimir Voevodsky (IAS, Princeton) “Univalent
Foundations: New Foundations of Mathematics”, Mar 26, 2014:
“Univalent Foundations, like ZFC-based foundations
and unlike category theory, is a complete foundational
system, but it is very different from ZFC. To provide a
format for comparison let me suppose that any
foundation for mathematics adequate both for human
reasoning and for computer verification should have
the following three components.”

Univalent Foundations of Mathematics
From Vladimir Voevodsky (IAS, Princeton), “Univalent
Foundations: New Foundations of Mathematics”, Mar 26, 2014:
“The first component is a formal deduction system: a
language and rules of manipulating sentences in this
language that are purely formal, such that a record of
such manipulations can be verified by a computer
program.
The second component is a structure that provides a
meaning to the sentences of this language in terms of
mental objects intuitively comprehensible to humans.
The third component is a structure that enables
humans to encode mathematical ideas in terms of the
objects directly associated with the language.”

Propositional Equality
Proofs of equality as (rewriting) computational paths
What is a proof of an equality statement? In what sense it can be
seen as a homotopy? Motivated by looking at equalities in type
theory as arising from the existence of computational paths between
two formal objects, it may be useful to review the role and the power
of the notion of propositional equality as formalised in the so-called
Curry–Howard functional interpretation.
The main idea, i.e. proofs of equality statements as (reversible)
sequences of rewrites, goes back to a paper entitled “Equality in
labelled deductive systems and the functional interpretation of
propositional equality”, , presented in Dec 1993 at the 9th Amsterdam
Colloquium, and published in the proceedings in 1994.

Let us consider equations E between individual terms

of equations S.
Definition (measure)
A function M from terms to non-negative integers is called a
measure if M(a) ≤ M(b) implies M(c[a/x]) ≤ M(c[b/x]), and,
whenever x occurs in c, M(a) ≤ M(c[a/x]).

The Functional Interpretation of Equality
Sequences of conversions
(λx.(λy.yx)(λw.zw))v η (λx.(λy.yx)z)v β (λy.yv)z β zv
(λx.(λy.yx)(λw.zw))v β (λx.(λw.zw)x)v η (λx.zx)v β zv
(λx.(λy.yx)(λw.zw))v β (λx.(λw.zw)x)v β (λw.zw)v η zv
There is at least one sequence of conversions from the initial term to
the final term. (In this case we have given three!) Thus, in the formal
theory of λ-calculus, the term (λx.(λy.yx)(λw.zw))v is declared to be
equal to zv.
Now, some natural questions arise:
1 Are the sequences themselves normal?
2 Are there non-normal sequences?
3 If yes, how are the latter to be identified and (possibly)
normalised?
4 What happens if general rules of equality are involved?

Propositional equality
Definition (Hindley & Seldin 2008)
P is β-equal or β-convertible to Q (notation P =β Q) iff Q is
obtained from P by a finite (perhaps empty) series of
β-contractions and reversed β-contractions and changes of
bound variables. That is, P =β Q iff there exist P0, . . . , Pn
(n ≥ 0) such that
P0 ≡ P, Pn ≡ Q,
(∀i ≤ n − 1)(Pi 1β Pi+1 or Pi+1 1β Pi or Pi ≡α Pi+1).
NB: equality with an existential force.
NB: equality as the reflexive, symmetric and transitive closure
of 1-step contraction: arising from rewriting

Equality: Existential Force and Rewriting Path
The same happens with λβη-equality:
Definition 7.5 (λβη-equality) (Hindley & Seldin 2008)
The equality-relation determined by the theory λβη is
called =βη; that is, we define
M =βη N ⇔ λβη M = N.
Note again that two terms are λβη-equal if there exists a proof
of their equality in the theory of λβη-equality.

Gentzen’s ND for propositional equality
Remark
In setting up a set of Gentzen’s ND-style rules for equality we
need to account for:
1 definitional versus propositional equality;
2 there may be more than one normal proof of a certain
equality statement;
3 given a (possibly non-normal) proof, the process of
bringing it to a normal form should be finite and confluent.

The missing entity
Considering the lessons learned from Type Theory, the
judgement of the form:
a = b : A
which says that a and b are equal elements from domain D, let
us add a function symbol:
a =s b : A
where one is to read: a is equal to b because of ‘s’ (‘s’ being
the rewrite reason); ‘s’ is a term denoting a sequence of
equality identifiers (β, η, ξ, etc.), i.e. a composition of rewrites.
In other words, ‘s’ is the computational path from a to b.
(This formal entity is missing in both of Martin-L¨of’s
formulations of Identity Types.)

Propositional Equality: The Groupoid Laws
With the formulation of propositional equality that we have just
defined, we can also prove that all elements of an identity type
obey the groupoid laws, namely
1 Associativity
2 Existence of an identity element
3 Existence of inverses
Also, the groupoid operation, i.e. composition of
paths/sequences, is actually, partial, meaning that not all
elements will be connected via a path. (The groupoid
interpretation refutes the Uniqueness of Identity Proofs.)

Propositional Equality: The Uniqueness of Identity Proofs
“We will call UIP (Uniqueness of Identity Proofs) the following
property. If a1, a2 are objects of type A then for any proofs p
and q of the proposition “a1 equals a2” there is another proof
establishing equality of p and q. (...) Notice that in traditional
logical formalism a principle like UIP cannot even be sensibly
expressed as proofs cannot be referred to by terms of the
object language and thus are not within the scope of
propositional equality.” (Hofmann & Streicher 1996)

Definition (equation)
An equation in our LNDEQ is of the form:
s =r t : A
where s and t are terms, r is the identifier for the rewrite reason, and
A is the type (formula).
Definition (system of equations)
A system of equations S is a set of equations:
{s1 =r1
t1 : A1, . . . , sn =rn
tn : An}
where ri is the rewrite reason identifier for the ith equation in S.

Definition (rewrite reason)
Given a system of equations S and an equation s =r t : A, if
S s =r t : A, i.e. there is a deduction/computation of the
equation starting from the equations in S, then the rewrite
reason r is built up from:
(i) the constants for rewrite reasons: { ρ, σ, τ, β, η, ν, ξ, µ };
(ii) the ri’s;
using the substitution operations:
(iii) subL;
(iv) subR;
and the operations for building new rewrite reasons:
(v) σ, τ, ξ, µ.

Categorical Interpretation of Computational Paths
Computational Paths form a Weak Category
Theorem
For each type A, computational paths induce a weak
categorical structure Arw where:
objects: terms a of the type A, i.e., a : A
morphisms: a morphism (arrow) between terms a : A and
b : A are arrows s : a → b such that s is a computational
path between the terms, i.e., a =s b : A.
Corollary
Arw has a weak groupoidal structure.

  • 3. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Homotopy Type Theory Univalent Foundations of Mathematics “Homotopy type theory is a new branch of mathematics that combines aspects of several different fields in a surprising way. It is based on a recently discovered connection between homotopy theory and type theory. It touches on topics as seemingly distant as the homotopy groups of spheres, the algorithms for type checking, and the definition of weak ∞-groupoids.” Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies

  • 5. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Geometry and Logic Alexander Grothendieck . . . the study of n-truncated homotopy types (of semisimplicial sets, or of topological spaces) [should be] essentially equivalent to the study of so-called n-groupoids. . . . This is expected to be achieved by associating to any space (say) X its “fundamental n-groupoid” Πn(X).... The obvious idea is that 0-objects of Πn(X) should be the points of X, 1-objects should be “homotopies” or paths between points, 2-objects should be homotopies between 1-objects, etc. (Grothendieck 1983) Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 6. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Geometry and Logic Vladimir Voevodsky “Some of the ways to approach the notion of space in mathematics: 1 topological spaces 2 metric spaces 3 homotopy theory (starts from points and paths)” Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 7. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Geometry and Logic Vladimir Voevodsky “From an observation by Grothendieck: Formalism of higher equivalences (theory of grupoids) = Homotopy theory (theory of shapes up to a deformation) Combined with some other ideas it: leads to an encoding of mathematics in terms of the homotopy theory. Unlike the usual encodings in terms of the set theory this one respects equivalences.” Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 8. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Equality as a Structure, not a Relation Vladimir Voevodsky “An equality between two abstract sets is not a relation but a structure. It is not expressed by an assertion of a proposition but by presenting an element of a set of possible equalities. For example, the abstract sets corresponding to the sets {A, B} and {C, D} can be equal either through the correspondence that takes A to C and B to D or through the one that takes A to D and B to C. This is one of the ways in which abstract sets are not “things”.” The Paul Bernays Lectures, September 2014, ETH Zurich Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies

  • 10. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Type Theory and Equality Four Judgements In type theory, there are 4 kinds of judgements: 1 A type 2 x : A 3 x = y : A 4 A = B Via the so-called Curry-Howard interpretation, “x : A” can be read as “x is a proof of proposition A”. Also, “x = y : A” can be read as “x and y are (definitionally) equal proofs of proposition A”. What about the judgement of “p is a proof of the statement that x and y are equal elements of type A”? This is where the so-called Identity type comes into the picture: p : IdA(x, y) Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 11. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Type Theory and its Derivations-as-Terms Interpretation Howard on Curry-Howard “ [de Bruijn] discovered the idea of derivations as terms, and the accompanying idea of formulae-as-types, on his own. (...) Martin-L¨of suggested that the derivations-as-terms idea would work particularly well in connection with Prawitz’s theory of natural deduction.” (W.Howard, Wadler’s Blog, 2014) Since the early 1990’s, our focus has been on insisting on the derivations-as-terms perspective, especially wrt to propositional equality.

  • 12. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Type Theory and Homotopy Theory Steve Awodey “The purpose of this informal survey article is to introduce the reader to a new and surprising connection between Geometry, Algebra, and Logic, which has recently come to light in the form of an interpretation of the constructive type theory of Per Martin-L¨of into homotopy theory, resulting in new examples of certain algebraic structures which are important in topology. This connection was discovered quite recently, and various aspects of it are now under active investigation by several researchers.” (“Type Theory and Homotopy Theory”, 2010.) Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 13. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Algebraic Structure: Groupoids Steve Awodey “A groupoid is like a group, but with a partially-defined composition operation. Precisely, a groupoid can be defined as a category in which every arrow has an inverse. A group is thus a groupoid with only one object. Groupoids arise in topology as generalized fundamental groups, not tied to a choice of basepoint.” Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 14. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P What is a proof of an equality statement? What is the formal counterpart of a proof of an equality? In talking about proofs of an equality statement, two dichotomies arise: 1 definitional equality versus propositional equality 2 intensional equality versus extensional equality First step on the formalisation of proofs of equality statements: Per Martin-L¨of’s Intuitionistic Type Theory (Log Coll ’73, published 1975) with the so-called Identity Type Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 15. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Identity Types Identity Types - Topological and Categorical Structure Workshop, Uppsala, November 13–14, 2006 “The identity type, the type of proof objects for the fundamental propositional equality, is one of the most intriguing constructions of intensional dependent type theory (also known as Martin-L¨of type theory). Its complexity became apparent with the Hofmann–Streicher groupoid model of type theory. This model also hinted at some possible connections between type theory and homotopy theory and higher categories. Exploration of this connection is intended to be the main theme of the workshop.” Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 16. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Identity Types Type Theory and Homotopy Theory Indeed, a whole new research avenue has since 2005 been explored by people like Vladimir Voevodsky and Steve Awodey in trying to make a bridge between type theory and homotopy theory, mainly via the groupoid structure exposed in the Hofmann–Streicher (1994) countermodel to the principle of Uniqueness of Identity Proofs (UIP). In Hofmann & Streicher’s own words, “We give a model of intensional Martin-L¨of type theory based on groupoids and fibrations of groupoids in which identity types may contain two distinct elements which are not even propositionally equal. This shows that the principle of uniqueness of identity proofs is not derivable in the syntax”. (“LICS ’94, pp. 208–212.)

  • 17. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Identity Types Identity Types as Topological Spaces According to B. van den Berg and R. Garner (“Topological and simplicial models of identity types”, ACM Transactions on Computational Logic, Jan 2012), “All of this work can be seen as an elaboration of the following basic idea: that in Martin-L¨of type theory, a type A is analogous to a topological space; elements a, b ∈ A to points of that space; and elements of an identity type p, q ∈ IdA(a, b) to paths or homotopies p, q : a → b in A.”. Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 18. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Identity Types Identity Types as Topological Spaces From the Homotopy type theory collective book (2013): “In type theory, for every type A there is a (formerly somewhat mysterious) type IdA of identifications of two objects of A; in homotopy type theory, this is just the path space AI of all continuous maps I → A from the unit interval. In this way, a term p : IdA(a, b) represents a path p : a b in A.” Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies
  • 19. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Identity Types: Iteration From Propositional to Predicate Logic and Beyond In the same aforementioned workshop, B. van den Berg in his contribution “Types as weak omega-categories” draws attention to the power of the identity type in the iterating types to form a globular set: “Fix a type X in a context Γ. Define a globular set as follows: A0 consists of the terms of type X in context Γ,modulo definitional equality; A1 consists of terms of the types Id(X; p; q) (in context Γ) for elements p, q in A0, modulo definitional equality; A2 consists of terms of well-formed types Id(Id(X; p; q); r; s) (in context Γ) for elements p, q in A0, r, s in A1, modulo definitional equality; etcetera...” Ruy de Queiroz (joint work with Anjolina de Oliveira) Centro de Inform´atica Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) Recife, Brazil Propositional Equality, Identity Types and Homotopies

  • 24. What is a Proof of an Equality? Brouwer–Heyting–Kolmogorov for Equality Direct Computations The Functional Interpretation of P Propositional Equality Proofs of equality as (rewriting) computational paths What is a proof of an equality statement? In what sense it can be seen as a homotopy? Motivated by looking at equalities in type theory as arising from the existence of computational paths between two formal objects, it may be useful to review the role and the power of the notion of propositional equality as formalised in the so-called Curry–Howard functional interpretation. The main idea, i.e. proofs of equality statements as (reversible) sequences of rewrites, goes back to a paper entitled “Equality in labelled deductive systems and the functional interpretation of propositional equality”, , presented in Dec 1993 at the 9th Amsterdam Colloquium, and published in the proceedings in 1994.
