Constructions as foundations of mathematics
 
Abstract: Type theory is a foundation of mathematics which takes as
primitive mathematical constructions, rather than logic and collections of
objects. That this is possible should not be surprising – after all,
constructions of all kinds permeate mathematical activity, and already
Euclid's Elements put propositions and constructions on equal footing.
However, the standard Martin-Löf type theory lacks certain features that
are essential to the development of mathematics, namely extensionality
principles, which are akin to Leibniz's identity of indiscernibles. The
most interesting and challenging extensionality principle is Voevodsky's
Axiom of Univalence, which can be seen as an extensionality principle for
the universe of types. Once we set up the new Univalent foundations based
on type theory, we discover an amazing connection between mathematical
foundations and abstract homotopy theory.
