Proof-relevance in Bishop-style constructive mathematics

Abstract: Bishop’s presentation of his informal system of constructive mathematics BISH was on purpose closer to the proof-irrelevance of classical mathematics, although a form of proof-relevance was evident in the use of several notions of moduli (of convergence, of uniform continuity, of uniform differentiability, etc.). Focusing on membership and equality conditions for sets given by appropriate existential formulas, we define certain families of proof sets that provide a BHK-interpretation of formulas that correspon… Show more

“…We work within BST, which behaves as a high-level programming language. For all notions and results of Bishop set theory that are used here without definition or proof we refer to [58], in this journal 6 , and to [55,60]. For all notions and results of constructive real analysis that are used here without definition or proof we refer to [6].…”

“…As an introduction to the basic concepts of BST is included in [58], in this journal, and in [55,60], we refer the reader to these sources for all basic concepts and results within BST that are mentioned here without further explanation or proof. In this section we present some basic properties of partial functions and complemented subsets within BST, which are necessary to the rest of this paper.…”

“…An important foundational difference between Zermelo-Fraenkel Set Theory pZFq and category theory pCaTq is that in the latter the notion of (generalised) function i.e., of arrow is fundamental, while in the former it is reduced to the concept of set. In this sense, CaT is much closer to Martin-Löf Type Theory pMLTTq (see [18,19,20]) and Bishop Set Theory pBSTq (see [27,30]), which are theories of types (sets) and functions. This feature of Bishop's theory of sets was captured by Myhill's formal system of Constructive Set Theory CST in [22], but it was not followed by Aczel in his system of Constructive Zermelo-Fraenkel Set Theory pCZFq (see [1]).…”

“…Categorical approaches to Bishop sets are found e.g., in the work of Palmgren [21] and Coquand [10]. For all notions and results of BST that we use without explanation or proof we refer to [33,36,39,41]. For all notions and facts from constructive analysis that we use without explanation or proof, we refer to [2,6,7].…”
