2024-10-07 07:20:25 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> So if every "B(a)" corresponds to a type with a finite amount of constructors (like an n-Set or "Fin n"), every node must have a finite amount of branches, thus becoming finitely wide and fully traversable in a finite amount of steps

2024-10-07 07:17:55 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Quoting, "The W type "W (a : A) B(a)" can thus be thought of as the type of well-founded trees, where nodes are labeled by elements of "A" and each node labeled by "a : A" has "B(a)"-many branches"

2024-10-07 07:15:34 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> thirdofmay18081814goya It has an entire section on them (5.3), short answer, if you have a W type "W (a : A) B(a)" you just have to make every result of "B(a)" a finite type

2024-10-07 06:40:54 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Oh wait the HoTT book may say something about W types lemme check
2024-10-07 06:40:39 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Yeah, lots of smart people there. Had a question about positivity and negativity of universes, they solved it fairly quickly and directed everyone with a similar question to other stuff that I yet don't understand
2024-10-07 06:37:59 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> i haven't gone on there yet did not know it existed
2024-10-07 06:37:48 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> Bowuigi: ah good point, ty
2024-10-07 06:37:04 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> concretely wellfounded tree only implies that, given any chain of elements, that chain terminates. but it doesn't state anything about how many chains there can be
2024-10-07 06:37:03 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> Btw this question is probably suitable for the HoTT Zulip
2024-10-07 06:36:50 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> I do not understand this topic enough yet lol, lemme learn how this works first

2024-10-07 06:35:44 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> Bowuigi: even in classical logic i think we get that wellfounded trees can be infinitely wide
2024-10-07 06:35:23 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> The "constructiveness" is what seems to make the trees possibly infinitely wide

2024-10-07 06:33:26 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> we want wellfoundedness
2024-10-07 06:33:16 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> or a subset
2024-10-07 06:33:08 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> because that make the tree = N
2024-10-07 06:32:55 +0200 <haskellbridge> <thirdofmay18081814goya> hm i think we do not want well-order
2024-10-07 06:31:43 +0200 <haskellbridge> <Bowuigi> So W-types are supposed to be a constructive counterpart to sets with a well founded irreflexive total order
