------------------------------------------------------------------------

Workshop on Homotopy Type Theory and Univalent Foundations
July 7-8, 2018, Oxford, United Kingdom
https://hott-uf.github.io/2018
Co-located with FSCD 2018 and part of FLoC 2018

Abstract submission deadline: March 31

------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 and Univalent Foundations: from
the study of syntax and semantics of type theory to practical
formalization in proof assistants based on univalent type theory.
