Title: Introduction to univalence in Coq IV
Abstract: This week we conclude our sequence of talks on homotopy type theory (HoTT). We revisit the univalence axiom and use a simple example to illustrate its use.
The audience is encouraged to follow the development of the theory on their own computers so please bring a laptop if you want to do this! (You will need about 300mb of space to install the Coq proof assistant.) There will be short exercises that the audience can complete at their own pace which will not be vital to the theory but rather are intended to familiarise the audience with the proof assistant and tactics.
