\begin{abstract}
The marriage between programming and logic has been a very fertile one. In
in particular Andrea Vezzosi and James Deikun, with whom I entertained
countless insightful discussions in the past year. Andrea suggested
Observational Type Theory as a topic of study: this thesis would not
- exist without him.
+ exist without him. Before them, Tony Fields introduced me to Haskell,
+ unknowingly filling most of my free time from that time on.
Finally, much of the work stems from the research of Conor McBride,
who answered many of my doubts through these months. I also owe him

\subsubsection{User defined types}
+\label{sec:user-type}
\begin{figure}[p]
\begin{subfigure}[b]{\textwidth}
Before defining $\myprop$, we define some basic types inside $\mykant$,
as the target for the $\myprop$ decoder:
-
\begin{framed}
\small
$
\myind{2} \myabs{\myb{A\ \myb{bot}}}{\mytyc{Empty}.\myfun{elim} \myappsp \myb{bot} \myappsp (\myabs{\_}{\myb{A}})} \\

\myreco{\mytyc{Prod}}{\myappsp (\myb{A}\ \myb{B} {:} \mytyp)}{ }{\myfun{fst} : \myb{A}, \myfun{snd} : \myb{B} }
\end{array}
\subsubsection{OTT constructs}
+Before presenting the direction that $\mykant$\ takes, let's consider
+some examples of use-defined data types, and the result we would expect,
+given what we already know about OTT, assuming the same propositional
+equalities.
+
+\begin{description}
+
+\item[Product types] Let's consider first the already mentioned
+ dependent product, using the alternate name $\mysigma$\footnote{For
+ extra confusion, `dependent products' are often called `dependent
+ sums' in the literature, referring to the interpretation that
+ identifies the first element as a `tag' deciding the type of the
+ second element, which lets us recover sum types (disjuctions), as we
+ saw in section \ref{sec:user-type}. Thus, $\mysigma$.} to
+ avoid confusion with the $\mytyc{Prod}$ in the prelude: {\small\[
+ \begin{array}{@{}l}
+ \myreco{\mysigma}{\myappsp (\myb{A} {:} \mytyp) \myappsp (\myb{B} {:} \myb{A} \myarr \mytyp)}{\\ \myind{2}}{\myfst : \myb{A}, \mysnd : \myapp{\myb{B}}{\myb{fst}}}
+ \end{array}
+ \]} Let's start with type-level equality. The result we want is
+ {\small\[
+ \begin{array}{@{}l}
+ \mysigma \myappsp \mytya_1 \myappsp \mytyb_1 \myeq \mysigma \myappsp \mytya_2 \myappsp \mytyb_2 \myred \\
+ \myind{2} \mytya_1 \myeq \mytya_2 \myand \myprfora{\myb{x_1}}{\mytya_1}{\myprfora{\myb{x_2}}{\mytya_2}{\myjm{\myb{x_1}}{\mytya_1}{\myb{x_2}}{\mytya_2}} \myimpl \myapp{\mytyb_1}{\myb{x_1}} \myeq \myapp{\mytyb_2}{\myb{x_2}}}
+ \end{array}
+ \]} The difference here is that in the original presentation of OTT
+ the type binders are explicit, while here $\mytyb_1$ and $\mytyb_2$
+ functions returning types. We can do this thanks to the type
+ hierarchy, and this hints at the fact that heterogeneous equality will
+ have to allow $\mytyp$ `to the right of the colon', and in fact this
+ provides the solution to simplify the equality above.
+
+ If we take, just like we saw previously in OTT
+ {\small\[
+ \begin{array}{@{}l}
+ \myjm{\myse{f}_1}{\myfora{\mytya_1}{\myb{x_1}}{\mytyb_1}}{\myse{f}_2}{\myfora{\mytya_2}{\myb{x_2}}{\mytyb_2}} \myred \\
+ \myind{2} \myprfora{\myb{x_1}}{\mytya_1}{\myprfora{\myb{x_2}}{\mytya_2}{
+ \myjm{\myb{x_1}}{\mytya_1}{\myb{x_2}}{\mytya_2} \myimpl
+ \myjm{\myapp{\myse{f}_1}{\myb{x_1}}}{\mytyb_1[\myb{x_1}]}{\myapp{\myse{f}_2}{\myb{x_2}}}{\mytyb_2[\myb{x_2}]}
+ }}
+ \end{array}
+ \]} Then we can simply take
+ {\small\[
+ \begin{array}{@{}l}
+ \mysigma \myappsp \mytya_1 \myappsp \mytyb_1 \myeq \mysigma \myappsp \mytya_2 \myappsp \mytyb_2 \myred \\ \myind{2} \mytya_1 \myeq \mytya_2 \myand \myjm{\mytyb_1}{\mytya_1 \myarr \mytyp}{\mytyb_2}{\mytya_2 \myarr \mytyp}
+ \end{array}
+ \]} Which will reduce to precisely what we desire. For what
+ concerns coercions and quotation, things stay the same (apart from the
+ fact that we apply to the second argument instead of substituting).
+ We can recognise records such as $\mysigma$ as such and employ
+ projections in value equality, coercions, and quotation; as to not
+ impede progress if not necessary.
+
+\item[Lists] Now for finite lists, which will give us a taste for data
+ constructors:
+ {\small\[
+ \begin{array}{@{}l}
+ \myadt{\mylist}{\myappsp (\myb{A} {:} \mytyp)}{ }{\mydc{nil} \mydcsep \mydc{cons} \myappsp \myb{A} \myappsp (\myapp{\mylist}{\myb{A}})}
+ \end{array}
+ \]}
+ Type equality is simple---we only need to compare the parameter:
+ {\small\[
+ \mylist \myappsp \mytya_1 \myeq \mylist \myappsp \mytya_2 \myred \mytya_1 \myeq \mytya_2
+ \]} For coercions, we transport based on the constructor, recycling
+ the proof for the inductive occurrence: {\small\[
+ \begin{array}{@{}l@{\ }c@{\ }l}
+ \mycoe \myappsp (\mylist \myappsp \mytya_1) \myappsp (\mylist \myappsp \mytya_2) \myappsp \myse{Q} \myappsp \mydc{nil} & \myred & \mydc{nil} \\
+ \mycoe \myappsp (\mylist \myappsp \mytya_1) \myappsp (\mylist \myappsp \mytya_2) \myappsp \myse{Q} \myappsp (\mydc{cons} \myappsp \mytmm \myappsp \mytmn) & \myred & \\
+ \multicolumn{3}{l}{\myind{2} \mydc{cons} \myappsp (\mycoe \myappsp \mytya_1 \myappsp \mytya_2 \myappsp \myse{Q} \myappsp \mytmm) \myappsp (\mycoe \myappsp (\mylist \myappsp \mytya_1) \myappsp (\mylist \myappsp \mytya_2) \myappsp \myse{Q} \myappsp \mytmn)}
+ \end{array}
+ \]} Value equality is unsurprising---we match the constructors, and
+ return bottom for mismatches. However, we also need to equate the
+ parameter in $\mydc{nil}$: {\small\[
+ \begin{array}{r@{ }c@{\ }c@{\ }c@{}l@{\ }c@{\ }r@{}c@{\ }c@{\ }c@{}l@{\ }l}
+ (& \mydc{nil} & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_1} &) & \myeq & (& \mydc{nil} & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_2} &) \myred \mytya_1 \myeq \mytya_2 \\
+ (& \mydc{cons} \myappsp \mytmm_1 \myappsp \mytmn_1 & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_1} &) & \myeq & (& \mydc{cons} \myappsp \mytmm_2 \myappsp \mytmn_2 & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_2} &) \myred \\
+ & \multicolumn{11}{@{}l}{ \myind{2}
+ \myjm{\mytmm_1}{\mytya_1}{\mytmm_2}{\mytya_2} \myand \myjm{\mytmn_1}{\myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_1}}{\mytmn_2}{\myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_2}}
+ } \\
+ (& \mydc{nil} & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_1} &) & \myeq & (& \mydc{cons} \myappsp \mytmm_2 \myappsp \mytmn_2 & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_2} &) \myred \mybot \\
+ (& \mydc{cons} \myappsp \mytmm_1 \myappsp \mytmn_1 & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_1} &) & \myeq & (& \mydc{nil} & : & \myapp{\mylist}{\mytya_2} &) \myred \mybot
+ \end{array}
+ \]}
+ Finally, quotation
