The paper Inductive types in homotopy type theory, written with S. Awodey and K. Sojakova, has been accepted for publication in the proceedings of LICS 2012. The paper is available on ArXiv and the related Coq code on Github.
22/3/2012 Steve Awodey, Erik Palmgren and I are co-editing a special issue of Mathematical Structures in Computer Science, entitled "From Type Theory and Homotopy Theory to Univalent Foundations". For more information, see the call for papers.
7/2/2012 The workshop Higher-dimensional algebra, categories and types will be held in Ljubljana (Slovenia) on June 20th, 2012, immediately after the Fourth Workshop on Formal Topology


Research interests
  • Mathematical Logic (proof theory, constructive set theory, type theory, categorical logic)
  • Category Theory (2-categories, homotopical algebra, polynomial functors)
  • Theoretical Computer Science (computer-assisted proof-checking)
