Homotopy Theory
Time: 13:00
Speaker: Martin Frankland (Western)
Title: "A univalent model in simplicial sets"
Room: MC 107

Abstract: We will review the notion of model of dependent type theory, with prescribed constructors. Then we will describe work of Kapulkin, Lumsdaine, and Voevodsky producing a model in the category of simplicial sets, for which the Univalence Axiom holds.
