–
Thierry Coquand’s research is about the foundation and formalization of mathematics, mainly using ideas from type theory. During his stay, he would like to understand if one can justify constructively Voevodsky’s axiom of univalence, and to explore the formalization of mathematics in the univalent foundation.
