  • The HoTT Game
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 11 Dec 2021
    Lean 3 introduced singleton-elimination which is inconsistent with HoTT. There's a project [0] that uses an attribute to restrict uses of that rule, but it isn't really ergonomic to use.

    HoTT is somewhat independent of the choice of proof assistant.

    idk what you mean by "blue screened", or results being on the way. afaict most of the non-foundational work present (what I assume you mean by "results") in these libraries are basic properties of basic mathematical concepts being rebuilt on HoTT.

  • What do we mean by "the foundations of mathematics"?
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Nov 2023
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zermelo%E2%80%93Fraenkel_set_t... :

    > * Today, Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory [ZFC], with the historically controversial axiom of choice (AC) included, is the standard form of axiomatic set theory and as such is the most common* foundation of mathematics.

    Foundation of mathematics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_mathematics

    Implementation of mathematics in set theory:

    > The implementation of a number of basic mathematical concepts is carried out in parallel in ZFC (the dominant set theory) and in NFU, the version of Quine's New Foundations shown to be consistent by R. B. Jensen in 1969 (here understood to include at least axioms of Infinity and Choice).

    > What is said here applies also to two families of set theories: on the one hand, a range of theories including Zermelo set theory near the lower end of the scale and going up to ZFC extended with large cardinal hypotheses such as "there is a measurable cardinal"; and on the other hand a hierarchy of extensions of NFU which is surveyed in the New Foundations article. These correspond to different general views of what the set-theoretical universe is like

    IEEE-754 specifies that float64s have ±infinity and specify ZeroDivisionError. Symbolic CAS with MPFR needn't be limited to float64s.

  • Will Computers Redefine the Roots of Math?
    6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Jun 2023
    For those interested in formalisation of homotopy type theory, there are several (more or less) active and developed libraries. To mention a few:

    UniMath (https://github.com/UniMath/UniMath, mentioned in the article)

    Coq-HoTT (https://github.com/HoTT/Coq-HoTT)

    agda-unimath (https://unimath.github.io/agda-unimath/)

    cubical agda (https://github.com/agda/cubical)

    All of these are open to contributions, and there are lots of useful basic things that haven't been done and which I think would make excellent semester projects for a cs/math undergrad (for example).

  • What is the benefit of using a text editor like MikTex, Texmaker, etc. over Overleaf?
    1 project | /r/LaTeX | 1 Apr 2021
    The major one for me is version control (git). Imaging having to write a book like HoTT without having revisions and easy way to work on your changes without interfering with anyone else's work and then easily merging everything together.
