[Bjorn Ian Dundas]

This is the first announcement for the workshop on

Homotopy Type Theory and Univalent Foundations

Oslo, Norway, 12 - 14 June 2019

Homotopy Type Theory and Univalent Foundations combines ideas and techniques from algebraic topology, logic, higher categories and computer science. As a fairly young subject it is still under dramatic development and sees vibrant activity.  

The workshop aims at bringing together researchers spanning the width of the field, complementing the concurrent TYPES conference https://cas.oslo.no/types2019/ with which it will share some plenary sessions.

	• Paolo Capriotti 
	• Evan Cavallo
