SystemT

Martin Escardo, Bruno da Rocha Paiva, Ayberk Tosun, and Vincent Rahli, June 2023

Gödel's system T and its standard set-theoretical semantics. This is a
modification of EffectfulForcing.MFPSAndVariations.SystemT, based on
PLFA (https://plfa.github.io/), which avoids lots of transport in the
file EffectfulForcing.Internal.Subst.

We work with vector types which notational grow at the end rather than
the head.  This is because we use vector types to represent contexts,
which traditionally grow at the end:


_^_ : 𝓤 ̇ → ℕ → 𝓤 ̇
X ^ 0        = 𝟙
X ^ (succ n) = X ^ n × X

infixr 3 _^_

data Cxt : 𝓤₀ ̇ where
 〈〉 : Cxt
 _,,_ : Cxt → type → Cxt

infixl 6 _,,_

data ∈Cxt (σ : type) : Cxt → 𝓤₀ ̇ where
 ∈Cxt0 : (Γ : Cxt) → ∈Cxt σ (Γ ,, σ)
 ∈CxtS : {Γ : Cxt} (τ : type) → ∈Cxt σ Γ → ∈Cxt σ (Γ ,, τ)

data T : (Γ : Cxt) (σ : type) → 𝓤₀ ̇ where
 Zero : {Γ : Cxt} → T Γ ι
 Succ : {Γ : Cxt} → T Γ ι → T Γ ι
 Rec  : {Γ : Cxt} {σ : type} → T Γ (ι ⇒ σ ⇒ σ) → T Γ σ → T Γ ι → T Γ σ
 ν    : {Γ : Cxt} {σ : type} (i : ∈Cxt σ Γ)  → T Γ σ
 ƛ    : {Γ : Cxt} {σ τ : type} → T (Γ ,, σ) τ → T Γ (σ ⇒ τ)
 _·_  : {Γ : Cxt} {σ τ : type} → T Γ (σ ⇒ τ) → T Γ σ → T Γ τ

The standard interpretation of system T:


【_】 : (Γ : Cxt) → 𝓤₀ ̇
【 Γ 】 = {σ : type} (i : ∈Cxt σ Γ) → 〖 σ 〗

⟨⟩ : 【 〈〉 】
⟨⟩ ()

_‚_ : {Γ : Cxt} {σ : type} → 【 Γ 】 → 〖 σ 〗 → 【 Γ ,, σ 】
(xs ‚ x) {σ} (∈Cxt0 _) = x
(xs ‚ x) {σ} (∈CxtS _ i) = xs i

infixl 6 _‚_

⟦_⟧ : {Γ : Cxt} {σ : type} → T Γ σ → 【 Γ 】 → 〖 σ 〗
⟦ Zero      ⟧  _ = 0
⟦ Succ t    ⟧ xs = succ (⟦ t ⟧ xs)
⟦ Rec f g t ⟧ xs = rec (⟦ f ⟧ xs) (⟦ g ⟧ xs) (⟦ t ⟧ xs)
⟦ ν i       ⟧ xs = xs i
⟦ ƛ t       ⟧ xs = λ x → ⟦ t ⟧ (xs ‚ x)
⟦ t · u     ⟧ xs = (⟦ t ⟧ xs) (⟦ u ⟧ xs)


Closed terms can be interpreted in a special way:


T₀ : type → Type
T₀ = T 〈〉

⟦_⟧₀  : {σ : type} → T₀ σ → 〖 σ 〗
⟦ t ⟧₀ = ⟦ t ⟧ ⟨⟩

T-definable : {σ : type} → 〖 σ 〗 → Type
T-definable {σ} x = Σ t ꞉ T₀ σ , ⟦ t ⟧₀ = x


System T extended with a formal oracle Ω, called T' (rather than TΩ as previously):


data T' : (Γ : Cxt) (σ : type) → Type where
 Ω    : {Γ : Cxt} → T' Γ (ι ⇒ ι)
 Zero : {Γ : Cxt} → T' Γ ι
 Succ : {Γ : Cxt} → T' Γ ι → T' Γ ι
 Rec  : {Γ : Cxt} → {σ : type} → T' Γ (ι ⇒ σ ⇒ σ) → T' Γ σ → T' Γ ι → T' Γ σ
 ν    : {Γ : Cxt} {σ : type} (a : ∈Cxt σ Γ)  → T' Γ σ
 ƛ    : {Γ : Cxt} → {σ τ : type} → T' (Γ ,, σ) τ → T' Γ (σ ⇒ τ)
 _·_  : {Γ : Cxt} → {σ τ : type} → T' Γ (σ ⇒ τ) → T' Γ σ → T' Γ τ


⟦_⟧' : {Γ : Cxt} {σ : type} → T' Γ σ → Baire → 【 Γ 】 → 〖 σ 〗
⟦ Ω         ⟧' α  _ = α
⟦ Zero      ⟧' _  _ = 0
⟦ Succ t    ⟧' α xs = succ (⟦ t ⟧' α xs)
⟦ Rec f g t ⟧' α xs = rec (⟦ f ⟧' α xs) (⟦ g ⟧' α xs) (⟦ t ⟧' α xs)
⟦ ν i       ⟧' _ xs = xs i
⟦ ƛ t       ⟧' α xs = λ x → ⟦ t ⟧' α (xs ‚ x)
⟦ t · u     ⟧' α xs = (⟦ t ⟧' α xs) (⟦ u ⟧' α xs)


To regard system T as a sublanguage of T', we need to work with an
explicit embedding:


embed : {Γ : Cxt} {σ : type} → T Γ σ → T' Γ σ
embed Zero        = Zero
embed (Succ t)    = Succ (embed t)
embed (Rec f g t) = Rec (embed f) (embed g) (embed t)
embed (ν i)       = ν i
embed (ƛ t)       = ƛ (embed t)
embed (t · u)     = (embed t) · (embed u)

preservation : {Γ : Cxt}
               {σ : type}
               (t : T Γ σ)
               (α : Baire)
             → ⟦ t ⟧ = ⟦ embed t ⟧' α
preservation Zero        α = refl
preservation (Succ t)    α = ap (λ f xs → succ (f xs)) (preservation t α)
preservation (Rec f g t) α = ap₃ (λ f g t xs → rec (f xs) (g xs) (t xs))
                             (preservation f α)
                             (preservation g α)
                             (preservation t α)
preservation (ν i)       α = refl
preservation (ƛ t)       α = ap (λ f xs x → f (xs ‚ x)) (preservation t α)
preservation (t · u)     α = ap₂ (λ f g x → f x (g x))
                             (preservation t α)
                             (preservation u α)

Some shorthands to simplify examples of system T terms.

Composition operation in System T:


comp : {Γ : Cxt} {ρ σ τ : type} → T Γ ((σ ⇒ τ) ⇒ (ρ ⇒ σ) ⇒ ρ ⇒ τ)
comp {Γ = Γ} = ƛ (ƛ (ƛ (ν₂ · (ν₁ · ν₀))))
