Experimental implementation of a cubical type theory in which the user can directly manipulate n-dimensional cubes. The language extends type theory with:

• Path abstraction and application
• Composition and transport
• Equivalences can be transformed into equalities (and univalence can be proved, see "examples/univalence.ctt")
• Some higher inductive types (see "examples/circle.ctt" and "examples/integer.ctt")

Because of this it is not necessary to have a special file of primitives (like in cubical), for instance function extensionality is provable in the system by:

funExt (A : U) (B : A -> U) (f g : (x : A) -> B x)
       (p : (x : A) -> Id (B x) (f x) (g x)) :
       Id ((y : A) -> B y) f g = <i> \(a : A) -> (p a) @ i

For more examples, see "examples/demo.ctt" and "examples/aim.ctt".

To compile the program type:

make bnfc && make

This assumes that the following Haskell packages are installed:

mtl, haskeline, directory, BNFC, alex, happy

To run the system type

cubical <filename>

To enable the debugging mode add the -d flag. In the interaction loop type :h to get a list of available commands. Note that the current directory will be taken as the search path for the imports.
