I have seen these papers on the arXiv for a while now:

https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.01413

https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.01709

Can anybody explain what they are about?

From vaugely skimming through it, it looks like they define a more explicit version of judgmental equality, from which they found an extensional type theory, and proceed to calculate the fundamental group of different spaces in that theory.

[HoTT] Quantum Groups

[José Manuel Rodriguez Caballero]

Hello,
  Roughly speaking, a quantum group is an algebraic structure which is
obtained by means of a deformation of a group. There rigorous definition is
here: https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/quantum+group

Official reference to quantum groups: Kassel, Christian (1995), Quantum
groups, Graduate Texts in Mathematics, 155, Berlin, New York:
Springer-Verlag, doi:10.1007/978-1-4612-0783-2, ISBN 978-0-387-94370-1, MR

Deformations... homotopy type... Well, given a "well-behaved" family of
quantum groups, which are deformations of the same group, is it "natural"
to define this family as a homotopy type? Is HoTT, in some way, a natural
setting to work with quantum groups because types and homotopy types are
identified?

Kind Regards,
José M.

Re: [HoTT] Quantum Groups

[Michael Shulman]

I doubt it.  My understanding of quantum groups is that they are
supposed to be groups with "noncommutative underlying spaces", and the
homotopy types of HoTT are all "commutative" in this sense.
