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.
