We show how to write generic programs and proofs in MartinL of type theory. To this end we consider several extensions of MartinL of's logical framework for dependent types. Each extension has a universes of codes (signatures) for inductively defined sets with generic formation, introduction, elimination, and equality rules. These extensions are modeled on Dybjer and Setzer's finitely axiomatized theories of inductive-recursive definitions, which also have a universe of codes for sets, and generic formation, introduction, elimination, and equality rules.

We give two nite axiomatizations of indexed inductive-recursive de nitions in intuitionistic type theory. They extend our previous nite axiomatizations of inductive-recursive de nitions of sets to indexed families of sets and encompass virtually all de nitions of sets which have been used in intuitionistic type theory. The more restricted of the two axiomatization arises naturally by considering indexed inductive-recursive de nitions as initial algebras in slice categories, whereas the other admits a more general and convenient form of an introduction rule.

We present a closed dependent type theory whose inductive types are given not by a scheme for generative declarations, but by encoding in a universe. Each inductive datatype arises by interpreting its description—a first-class value in a datatype of descriptions. Moreover, the latter itself has a description. Datatype-generic programming thus becomes ordinary programming. We show some of the resulting generic operations and deploy them in particular, useful ways on the datatype of datatype descriptions itself. Surprisingly this apparently self-supporting setup is achievable without paradox or infinite regress. 1.

In a previous paper we have given a representation of continuous functions on streams, both discrete-valued functions, and functions between streams. the topology on streams is the ‘Baire ’ topology induced by taking as a basic neighbourhood the set of streams that share a given finite prefix. We gave also a combinator on the representations of stream processing functions that reflects composition. Streams are the simplest example of a non-trivial final coalgebras, playing in the coalgebraic realm the same role as do the natural numbers in the algebraic realm. Here we extend our previous results to cover the case of final coalgebras for a broad class of functors generalising (×A). The functors we deal with are those that arise from countable signatures of finiteplace untyped operators. These have many applications. The topology we put on the final coalgebra for such a functor is that induced by taking for basic neighbourhoods the set of infinite objects which share a common prefix, according to the usual definition of the final coalgebra as the limit of a certain inverse chain starting at �. 1

This note is about work in progress on the topic of “internal type theory ” where we investigate the internal formalization of the categorical metatheory of constructive type theory in (an extension of) itself. The basic notion is that of a category with families, a categorical notion of model of dependent type theory. We discuss how to formalize the notion of category with families inside type theory and how to build initial categories with families. Initial categories with families will be term models which play the role of canonical syntax for dependent type theory. We also discuss the formalization of the result that categories with finite limits give rise to categories with families. This yields a type-theoretic perspective on Curien’s work on “substitution up to isomorphism”. Our formalization is being carried out in the proof assistant Agda 2 developed at Chalmers. 1

Abstract. The technique of reflection is a way to automate proof construction in type theoretical proof assistants. Reflection is based on the definition of a type of syntactic expressions that gets interpreted in the domain of discourse. By allowing the interpretation function to be partial or even a relation one gets a more general method known as ``partial reflection''. In this paper we show how one can take advantage of the partiality of the interpretation to uniformly define a family of tactics for equational reasoning that will work in different algebraic structures. The tactics then follow the hierarchy of those algebraic structures in a natural way.

Abstract. In this article we revisit the approach by Bove and Capretta for formulating partial recursive functions in Martin-Löf Type Theory by indexed inductive-recursive definitions. We will show that all inductiverecursive definitions used there can be replaced by inductive definitions. However, this encoding results in an additional technical overhead. In order to obtain directly executable partial recursive functions, we introduce restrictions on the indexed inductive-recursive definitions used. Then we introduce a data type of partial recursive functions. This allows to define higher order partial recursive functions like the map functional, which depend on other partial recursive functions. This data type will be based on the closed formalisation of indexed inductive-recursive definitions introduced by Dybjer and the author. All elements of this data type will represent partial recursive functions, and the set of partial recursive functions will be closed under the standard operations for forming partial recursive functions, and under the total functions. Keywords: Martin-Löf type theory, computability theory, recursion theory, Kleene index, Kleene brackets, partial recursive functions, inductive-recursive definitions, indexed induction-recursion.

We introduce concepts for representing interactive programs in dependent type theory. The representation uses a monad, as in Haskell. We consider two versions, one, in which the interface with the real world is fixed, and another one, in which the interface varies depending on previous interactions. We then generalise the monadic construction to polynomial functors. Then we look at rules needed in order to introduce weakly final coalgebras in dependent type theory. We arrive at the notion of coiteration, and investigate its relationship to guarded induction. Finally we explore the relationship between state dependent coalgebras and bisimulation.
