Definition SymbolType_internal : Type Type := ne_list.

A Signature is used to characterise Algebras. In particular a signature specifies which operations (functions) an algebra for the signature is expected to provide. A signature consists of
  • A type of Sorts. An algebra for the signature must provide a type for each s : Sort.
  • A type of function symbols Symbol. For each function symbol u : Symbol, an algebra for the signature must provide a corresponding operation.
  • The field symbol_types σ u indicates which type the operation corresponding to u should have.

Record Signature : Type := BuildSignature
  { Sort : Type
  ; Symbol : Type
  ; symbol_types : Symbol SymbolType_internal Sort }.

We have this implicit coercion allowing us to use a signature σ:Signature as a map Symbol σ SymbolType σ (see SymbolType below).

Global Coercion symbol_types : Signature >-> Funclass.

A single sorted Signature is a signature with Sort = Unit.
Let σ:Signature. For each symbol u : Symbol σ, σ u associates u to a SymbolType σ. This represents the required type of the algebra operation corresponding to u.

Definition SymbolType (σ : Signature) : Type := ne_list (Sort σ).

For s : SymbolType σ, cod_symboltype σ is the codomain of the symbol type s.
For s : SymbolType σ, cod_symboltype σ is the domain of the symbol type s.
For s : SymbolType σ, cod_symboltype σ is the arity of the symbol type s. That is the number n:nat of arguments of the SymbolType σ.
An Algebra must provide a family of Carriers σ indexed by Sort σ. These carriers are the "objects" (types) of the algebra.

(* Carriers is a notation because it will be used for an implicit
   coercion Algebra >-> Funclass below. *)


Notation Carriers σ := (Sort σ Type).

The function Operation maps a family of carriers A : Carriers σ and w : SymbolType σ to the corresponding function type.
      Operation A [:s1; s2; ...; sn; t:] = A s1 → A s2 → ... → A sn → A t
where [:s1; s2; ...; sn; t:] : SymbolType σ is a symbol type with domain [s1; s2; ...; sn] and codomain t.

An Algebra σ for a signature σ consists of a family carriers : Carriers σ indexed by the sorts s : Sort σ, and for each symbol u : Symbol σ, an operation of type Operation carriers u), where σ u : SymbolType σ is the symbol type of u.

To find a path between two algebras A B : Algebra σ it suffices to find paths between the carriers and the operations.

  (q : transport (λ X, u, Operation X (σ u)) p (operations A)

Suppose p,q are paths in Algebra σ. To show that p = q it suffices to find a path r between the paths corresponding to p and q in SigAlgebra σ.

Module algebra_notations.

Given A : Algebra σ and function symbol u : Symbol σ, we use the notation u .# A to refer to the corresponding algebra operation of type Operation A u).
