Subject: [HoTT] HoTT with extensional equality
Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2020 14:59:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8de08372-b17d-c153-73ad-4cd8b6c49758@gmail.com> (raw)

Dear all,

I have been increasingly running into situations where I wished I had an 
extensional equality type with a  reflection rule in HoTT, in addition 
to the intensional one to which univalence pertains. I know that type 
systems with two equalities have been studied in the HoTT community 
(e.g., VV's HTS), but last time I discussed this with people it seemed 
the situation was not yet well-understood. So my question is, what 
exactly goes wrong if we endow HoTT with an extensional type?

Thank you,

Kristina
