8.1.5 The homotopy-theoretic proof


In \\autorefsec:pi1s1-universal-cover, we defined the putative universal coverMathworldPlanetmath 𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾:𝕊1𝒰 in type theoryPlanetmathPlanetmath, and in \\autorefsubsec:pi1s1-homotopy-theory we defined a map 𝖾𝗇𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾:(x:𝕊1)(𝖻𝖺𝗌𝖾=x)𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾(x) from the path fibrationMathworldPlanetmath to the universal cover.What remains for the classical proof is to show that this map induces an equivalence on total spaces because both are contractible, and to deduce from this that it must be an equivalence on each fiber.

In \\autorefthm:contr-paths we saw that the total space (x:𝕊1)(𝖻𝖺𝗌𝖾=x) is contractible.For the other, we have:

Lemma 8.1.1.

The type (x:S1)code(x) is contractible.

Proof.

We apply the flattening lemma (\\autorefthm:flattening) with the following values:

  • A:𝟏 and B:𝟏, with f and g the obvious functions.Thus, the base higher inductive type W in the flattening lemma is equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath to 𝕊1.

  • C:A𝒰 is constant at .

  • D:(b:B)() is constant at 𝗌𝗎𝖼𝖼.

Then the type family P:𝕊1𝒰 defined in the flattening lemma is equivalent to 𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾:𝕊1𝒰.Thus, the flattening lemma tells us that (x:𝕊1)𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾(x) is equivalent to a higher inductive type with the following generatorsPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath, which we denote R:

  • A function 𝖼:R.

  • For each z:, a path 𝗉z:𝖼(z)=𝖼(𝗌𝗎𝖼𝖼(z)).

We might call this type the homotopical reals;it plays the same role as the topological spaceMathworldPlanetmath in the classical proof.

Thus, it remains to show that R is contractible.As center of contraction we choose 𝖼(0); we must now show that x=𝖼(0) for all x:R.We do this by inductionMathworldPlanetmath on R.Firstly, when x is 𝖼(z), we must give a path qz:𝖼(0)=𝖼(z), which we can do by induction on z::

q0:𝗋𝖾𝖿𝗅𝖼(0)
qn+1:qn\\centerdot𝗉nfor n0
qn-1:qn\\centerdot𝗉n-1-1for n0.

Secondly, we must show that for any z:, the path qz is transported along 𝗉z to qz+1.By transport of paths, this means we want qz\\centerdot𝗉z=qz+1.This is easy by induction on z, using the definition of qz.This completesPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath the proof that R is contractible, and thus so is (x:𝕊1)𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾(x).∎

Corollary 8.1.2.

The map induced by encode:

(x:𝕊1)(𝖻𝖺𝗌𝖾=x)(x:𝕊1)𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾(x)

is an equivalence.

Proof.

Both types are contractible.∎

Theorem 8.1.3.

Ω(𝕊1,𝖻𝖺𝗌𝖾).

Proof.

Apply \\autorefthm:total-fiber-equiv to 𝖾𝗇𝖼𝗈𝖽𝖾, using \\autorefthm:encode-total-equiv.∎

In essence, the two proofs are not very different: the encode-decode one may be seen as a “reductionPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath” or “unpackaging” of the homotopy-theoretic one.Each has its advantages; the interplay between the two points of view is part of the interest of the subject.
