     Univalent categories and the Rezk completion

     Math. Structures Comput. Sci. 25 5 (2015) 1010-1039.

     arXiv:1303.0584

     doi:10.1017/S0960129514000486

   on internal categories in homotopy type theory and their Rezk completion to univalent categories.

   Abstract. We develop category theory within Univalent Foundations, which is a foundational system for mathematics based on a homotopical interpretation of dependent type theory. In this system, we propose a definition of “category” for which equality and equivalence of categories agree. Such categories satisfy a version of the Univalence Axiom, saying that the type of isomorphisms between any two objects is equivalent to the identity type between these objects; we call them “saturated” or “univalent” categories. Moreover, we show that any category is weakly equivalent to a univalent one in a universal way. In homotopical and higher-categorical semantics, this construction corresponds to a truncated version of the Rezk completion for Segal spaces, and also to the stack completion of a prestack.
