Quotient of a graph

Definition

The quotient of a graph is one of the simplest HITs that can be found in HoTT. It consists of a base type and a relation on it, and for every witness of a relation between two points of the type, a path.
We use graph quotients to build up all our other non-recursive HITs. Their simplicity means that we can easily prove results about them and generalise them to other HITs.

Above we did a match with output type a function, and then outside of the match we provided the argument gqglue'. If we instead end with | gq a gq' a end., the definition will not depend on gqglue', which would be incorrect. This is the idiom referred to in ../../test/bugs/github1758.v and github1759.v.

The flattening lemma

Univalence tells us that type families over a colimit correspond to cartesian families over the indexing diagram. The flattening lemma gives an explicit description of the family over a colimit that corresponds to a given cartesian family, again using univalence. Together, these are known as descent, a fundamental result in higher topos theory which has many implications.

Section Flattening.

  Context `{Univalence} {A : Type} {R : A A Type}.
We consider a type family over A which is "equifibrant" or "cartesian": the fibers are equivalent when the base points are related by R.
  Context (F : A Type) (e : x y, R x y F x <~> F y).

By univalence, the equivalences give equalities, which means that F induces a map on the quotient.
  Definition DGraphQuotient : GraphQuotient R Type
    := GraphQuotient_rec F (fun x y spath_universe (e x y s)).

The transport of DGraphQuotient along gqglue equals the equivalence e applied to the original point. This lemma is required a few times in the following proofs.
  Definition transport_DGraphQuotient {x y} (s : R x y) (a : F x)
    : transport DGraphQuotient (gqglue s) a = e x y s a.
  Proof.
    lhs nrapply transport_idmap_ap.
    lhs nrapply (transport2 idmap).
    1: apply GraphQuotient_rec_beta_gqglue.
    rapply transport_path_universe.
  Defined.

The family DGraphQuotient we have defined over GraphQuotient R has a total space which we will describe as a GraphQuotient of sig F by an appropriate relation.
We mimic the constructors of GraphQuotient for the total space. Here is the point constructor.
  Definition flatten_gq {x} : F x sig DGraphQuotient.
  Proof.
    intros p.
    exact (gq x; p).
  Defined.

And here is the path constructor.
  Definition flatten_gqglue {x y} (s : R x y) (a : F x)
    : flatten_gq a = flatten_gq (e x y s a).
  Proof.
    snrapply path_sigma'.
    - by apply gqglue.
    - apply transport_DGraphQuotient.
  Defined.

This lemma is the same as transport_DGraphQuotient but adapted instead for DPath. The use of DPath will be apparent there.
  Lemma equiv_dp_dgraphquotient (x y : A) (s : R x y) (a : F x) (b : F y)
    : DPath DGraphQuotient (gqglue s) a b <~> (e x y s a = b).
  Proof.
    refine (equiv_concat_l _^ _).
    apply transport_DGraphQuotient.
  Defined.

We can also prove an induction principle for sig DGraphQuotient. We won't show that it satisfies the relevant computation rules as these will not be needed. Instead we will prove the non-dependent eliminator directly so that we can better reason about it. In order to get through the path algebra here, we have opted to use dependent paths. This makes the reasoning slightly easier, but it should not matter too much.
  Definition flatten_ind {Q : sig DGraphQuotient Type}
    (Qgq : a (x : F a), Q (flatten_gq x))
    (Qgqglue : a b (s : R a b) (x : F a),
      flatten_gqglue s x # Qgq _ x = Qgq _ (e _ _ _ x))
    : x, Q x.
  Proof.
    apply sig_ind.
    snrapply GraphQuotient_ind.
    1: exact Qgq.
    intros a b s.
    apply dp_forall.
    intros x y.
    srapply (equiv_ind (equiv_dp_dgraphquotient a b s x y)^-1).
    intros q.
    destruct q.
    refine (transport2 _ _ _ @ Qgqglue a b s x).
    refine (ap (path_sigma_uncurried DGraphQuotient _ _) _).
    snrapply path_sigma.
    1: reflexivity.
    lhs nrapply concat_p1.
    apply inv_V.
  Defined.

Rather than use flatten_ind to define flatten_rec we reprove this simple case. This means we can later reason about it and derive the computation rules easily. The full computation rule for flatten_ind takes some work to derive and is not actually needed.
  Definition flatten_rec {Q : Type} (Qgq : a, F a Q)
    (Qgqglue : a b (s : R a b) (x : F a), Qgq a x = Qgq b (e _ _ s x))
    : sig DGraphQuotient Q.
  Proof.
    apply sig_rec.

    intros a b s.
    nrapply dpath_arrow.
    intros y.
    lhs nrapply transport_const.
    lhs nrapply (Qgqglue a b s).
    f_ap; symmetry.
    apply transport_DGraphQuotient.
  Defined.

The non-dependent eliminator computes as expected on our "path constructor".
  Definition flatten_rec_beta_gqglue {Q : Type} (Qgq : a, F a Q)
    (Qgqglue : a b (r : R a b) (x : F a), Qgq a x = Qgq b (e _ _ r x))
    (a b : A) (s : R a b) (x : F a)
    : ap (flatten_rec Qgq Qgqglue) (flatten_gqglue s x) = Qgqglue a b s x.
  Proof.
    lhs nrapply ap_sig_rec_path_sigma; cbn.
    lhs nrapply (ap (fun xx @ _)).
    { nrapply ap.
      nrapply (ap01 (fun xap10 x _)).
      nrapply GraphQuotient_ind_beta_gqglue. }

    apply moveL_pM.

  Defined.

Now that we've shown that sig DGraphQuotient acts like a GraphQuotient of sig F by an appropriate relation, we can use this to prove the flattening lemma. The maps back and forth are very easy so this could almost be a formal consequence of the induction principle.
