Syllepsis in Homotopy Type Theory.
2021
It is well-known that in homotopy type theory (HoTT), one can prove the Eckmann-Hilton theorem: given two 2-loops p, q : 1 = 1 on the reflexivity path at an arbitrary point a : A, we have pq = qp. If we go one dimension higher, i.e., if p and q are 3-loops, we show that a property classically known as syllepsis also holds in HoTT: namely, the Eckmann-Hilton proof for q and p is the inverse of the Eckmann-Hilton proof for p and q.
