Univalent foundations as structuralist foundations
The Univalent Foundations of Mathematics (UF) provide not only an entirely non-Cantorian conception of the basic objects of mathematics (“homotopy types” instead of “sets”) but also a novel account of how foundations ought to relate to mathematical practice. In this paper, I intend to answer the question: In what way is UF a new foundation of mathematics? I will begin by connecting UF to a prag...
متن کاملUnivalent Foundations Project
While working on the completion of the proof of the Bloch-Kato conjecture I have thought a lot about what to do next. Eventually I became convinced that the most interesting and important directions in current mathematics are the ones related to the transition into a new era which will be characterized by the widespread use of automated tools for proof construction and verification. I have star...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Univalent Foundations for Mathematicians
We offer an introduction for mathematicians to the univalent foundations of Vladimir Voevodsky, aiming to explain how he chose to encode mathematics in type theory and how the encoding reveals a potentially viable foundation for all of modern mathematics that can serve as an alternative to set theory.
متن کاملHomotopy Type Theory: Univalent Foundations of Mathematics
Homotopy type theory is a new branch of mathematics, based on a recently discovered connection between homotopy theory and type theory, which brings new ideas into the very foundation of mathematics. On the one hand, Voevodsky's subtle and beautiful"univalence axiom"implies that isomorphic structures can be identified. On the other hand,"higher inductive types"provide direct, logical descriptio...
