Type theory and its semantics
Abstract:
V práci zkoumáme kategorie s reprezentovatelnými šipkami (CwRs) -- potenciální odpověď na otázku "Co je to (závislá) teorie typů?" navrženou Taichim Uemurou v jeho dizertační práci. Dokazujeme, že 2-kategorie všech CwRs má různé dobré 2-kategoriální vlastnosti -- jedná se o dosažitelnou 2-kategorii s flexibilními limitami a bikolimitami. Díky těmto vlastnostem můžeme CwRs volně generovat kategoriemi …more
Abstract:
We examine categories with representable maps (CwRs) -- an answer to the question `What is a (dependent) type theory?' suggested by Taichi Uemura in his PhD thesis. We prove that the 2-category of CwRs has various good 2-categorical properties -- it is an accessible 2-category with flexible limits and bicolimits. Using this, we deduce that CwRs can be freely generated by categories with specified arrows …more
