Inductive identity🔗
In cubical type theory, we generally use the path types to represent identifications. But in cubical type theory with indexed inductive types, we have a different — but equivalent — choice: the inductive identity type.
data _≡ᵢ_ {ℓ} {A : Type ℓ} (x : A) : A → Type ℓ where reflᵢ : x ≡ᵢ x {-# BUILTIN EQUALITY _≡ᵢ_ #-}
To show that
is equivalent to
for every type
we’ll show that _≡ᵢ_ and reflᵢ form an identity
system regardless of the underlying type. Since Id is an inductive type, we can do so by
pattern matching, which results in a very slick definition:
Id-identity-system : ∀ {ℓ} {A : Type ℓ} → is-identity-system (_≡ᵢ_ {A = A}) (λ _ → reflᵢ) Id-identity-system .to-path reflᵢ = refl Id-identity-system .to-path-over reflᵢ = refl
Paths are, in many ways, more convenient than the inductive identity type: as a (silly) example, for paths, we have definitionally. But the inductive identity type has one property which sets it apart from paths: regularity. Transport along the reflexivity path is definitionally the identity:
substᵢ : ∀ {ℓ ℓ'} {A : Type ℓ} (P : A → Type ℓ') {x y : A} → x ≡ᵢ y → P x → P y substᵢ P reflᵢ x = x _ : ∀ {ℓ} {A : Type ℓ} {x : A} → substᵢ (λ x → x) reflᵢ x ≡ x _ = refl
_ = _≡_ Id≃path : ∀ {ℓ} {A : Type ℓ} {x y : A} → (x ≡ᵢ y) ≃ (x ≡ y) Id≃path {ℓ} {A} {x} {y} = identity-system-gives-path (Id-identity-system {ℓ = ℓ} {A = A}) {a = x} {b = y} module Id≃path {ℓ} {A : Type ℓ} = Ids (Id-identity-system {A = A})
In the 1Lab, we prefer _≡_ over _≡ᵢ_ — which is why
there is no comprehensive toolkit for working with the latter. But it
can still be used when we want to avoid transport along
reflexivity, for example, when working with decidable equality of
concrete (indexed) types like Fin.
