Hello,
  After reading the (beautiful) paper

Paredes, Belén. "Boson-Lattice Construction for Anyon Models." arXiv
preprint arXiv:1804.01605 (2018).
https://arxiv.org/pdf/1804.01605.pdf

I was rather motivated to explore modular tensor categories:
https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/modular+tensor+category

using a proof assistant. My preferred proof assistant is Isabelle/HOL,
because of the hight level of automation, but I am not sure that simple
type theory is the best formal system to work with modular tensor
categories. As far as I know, HoTT has been used in order to formalize
category theory in a rather successful way. In my case, I programmed a
little bit in UniMath (Coq), but thee automation was almost zero (maybe
there is some automation, but I did not know how to use it, everything that
I learned in computer sciences was self-taught).

So, I wonder in which proof assistant HoTT can be used with a maximum of
automation.

Kind Regards,
José M.
