On Left Adjoints Preserving Colimits in HoTT

Authors: Perry Hart

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 363, 34th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2026)


Abstract
We examine how the standard proof that left adjoints preserve colimits behaves in the setting of wild categories, a natural setting for synthetic homotopy theory inside homotopy type theory. We prove that the proof may fail for adjunctions between wild categories. Our core contribution, however, is a sufficient condition on the left adjoint for the proof to go through. The condition, called 2-coherence, expresses that the naturality structure of the hom-isomorphism commutes with composition of morphisms. We present two useful examples of this condition in action. First, we use it, along with a new version of a known trick for homogeneous types, to show that the suspension functor preserves graph-indexed colimits. Second, we show that every modality, viewed as a functor on coslices of a type universe, is 2-coherent as a left adjoint to the forgetful functor from the subcategory of modal types, thereby proving this subcategory is cocomplete. We have formalized our main results in Agda.

Formalizing Colimits in 𝒞at

Authors: Mario Carneiro and Emily Riehl

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)


Abstract
Certain results involving "higher structures" are not currently accessible to computer formalization because the prerequisite ∞-category theory has not been formalized. To support future work on formalizing ∞-category theory in Lean’s mathematics library, we formalize some fundamental constructions involving the 1-category of categories. Specifically, we construct the left adjoint to the nerve embedding of categories into simplicial sets, defining the homotopy category functor. We prove further that this adjunction is reflective, which allows us to conclude that 𝒞at has colimits. To our knowledge this is the first formalized proof that the nerve functor is a fully faithful right adjoint and that the category of categories is cocomplete.

What Does It Take to Certify a Conversion Checker?

Authors: Meven Lennon-Bertrand

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 337, 10th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025)


Abstract
We report on a detailed exploration of the properties of conversion (definitional equality) in dependent type theory, with the goal of certifying decision procedures for it. While in that context the property of normalisation has attracted the most light, we instead emphasize the importance of injectivity properties, showing that they alone are both crucial and sufficient to certify most desirable properties of conversion checkers. We also explore the certification of a fully untyped conversion checker, with respect to a typed specification, and show that the story is mostly unchanged, although the exact injectivity properties needed are subtly different.

Complexity of Cubical Cofibration Logics I: coNP-Complete Examples

Authors: Robert Rose and Daniel R. Licata

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 336, 30th International Conference on Types for Proofs and Programs (TYPES 2024)


Abstract
We provide a comprehensive classification of the cofibration entailment problem, COFENT, for the cofibration logics of various cubical type theories in use today. The problem COFENT arose from the need of cubical proof assistants to automate reasoning about cubical complexes included in an n-dimensional hypercube. Intuitively, it asks: given logical descriptions of two such complexes, is one a subcomplex of the other? We show that the common variants of COFENT are coNP-complete.

Coslice Colimits in Homotopy Type Theory

Authors: Perry Hart and Kuen-Bang Hou (Favonia)

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)


Abstract
We contribute to the theory of (homotopy) colimits inside homotopy type theory. The heart of our work characterizes the connection between colimits in coslices of a universe, called coslice colimits, and colimits in the universe (i.e., ordinary colimits). To derive this characterization, we find an explicit construction of colimits in coslices that is tailored to reveal the connection. We use the construction to derive properties of colimits. Notably, we prove that the forgetful functor from a coslice creates colimits over trees. We also use the construction to examine how colimits interact with orthogonal factorization systems and with cohomology theories. As a consequence of their interaction with orthogonal factorization systems, all pointed colimits (special kinds of coslice colimits) preserve n-connectedness, which implies that higher groups are closed under colimits on directed graphs. We have formalized our main construction of the coslice colimit functor in Agda.

Synthetic Integral Cohomology in Cubical Agda

Authors: Guillaume Brunerie, Axel Ljungström, and Anders Mörtberg

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)


Abstract
This paper discusses the formalization of synthetic cohomology theory in a cubical extension of Agda which natively supports univalence and higher inductive types. This enables significant simplifications of many proofs from Homotopy Type Theory and Univalent Foundations as steps that used to require long calculations now hold simply by computation. To this end, we give a new definition of the group structure for cohomology with ℤ-coefficients, optimized for efficient computations. We also invent an optimized definition of the cup product which allows us to give the first complete formalization of the axioms needed to turn the integral cohomology groups into a graded commutative ring. Using this, we characterize the cohomology groups of the spheres, torus, Klein bottle and real/complex projective planes. As all proofs are constructive we can then use Cubical Agda to distinguish between spaces by computation.
