========================================================== CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS AND PARTICIPATION Workshop on Homotopy Type Theory and Univalent Foundations (HoTT/UF, at FSCD 2017) ========================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Workshop on Homotopy Type Theory and Univalent Foundations September 8-9, 2017, Oxford, United Kingdom https://hott-uf.github.io/2017/ Co-located with FSCD 2017 https://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/conferences/fscd2017/ Abstract submission deadline: June 30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Homotopy Type Theory is a young area of logic, combining ideas from several established fields: the use of dependent type theory as a foundation for mathematics, inspired by ideas and tools from abstract homotopy theory. Univalent Foundations are foundations of mathematics based on the homotopical interpretation of type theory. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers interested in all aspects of Homotopy Type Theory/Univalent Foundations: from the study of syntax and semantics of type theory to practical formalization in proof assistants based on univalent type theory. As part of the workshop there will be an introductory tutorial intended to make the invited and contributed talks accessible to non-experts. ============================ # Invited talks/tutorials * Thorsten Altenkirch (University of Nottingham) (tutorial) * Ulrik Buchholtz (Technical University of Darmstadt) * Thierry Coquand (University of Gothenburg): Sheaf models for univalent type theory ================ # Submissions * Abstract submission deadline: June 30 * Author notification: mid July Submissions should consist of a title and a 1-2 pages abstract, in pdf format, via https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hottuf17 Considering the broad background of the expected audience, we encourage authors to include information of pedagogical value in their abstract, such as motivation and context of their work. ====================== # Program committee * Benedikt Ahrens (Inria Nantes) * Paolo Capriotti (University of Nottingham) * Simon Huber (University of Gothenburg) * Chris Kapulkin (University of Western Ontario) * Peter LeFanu Lumsdaine (Stockholm University) * Assia Mahboubi (Inria Saclay) * Anders Mörtberg (Inria Sophia-Antipolis) * Paige North (University of Cambridge) * Nicolas Tabareau (Inria Nantes) ================ # Organizers * Benedikt Ahrens (Inria Nantes) * Simon Huber (University of Gothenburg) * Anders Mörtberg (Inria Sophia Antipolis)
