Stream: Is there code for X?

Topic: Decidable rels on a quotient


Yaël Dillies (Jan 29 2022 at 21:30):

Are we missing the decidable instances for docs#quotient.lift and docs#quotient.lift₂? Or do they not even theoretically exist?

Yury G. Kudryashov (Jan 29 2022 at 22:33):

Do you mean [i : setoid α] (p : α → Prop) [decidable_pred p] (hp : ∀ x y, x ≈ y → p x = p y) (a : quotient i) : decidable (quotient.lift p hp a)?

Yury G. Kudryashov (Jan 29 2022 at 22:34):

It should be possible to decide using recursion on a (another quotient.lift)

Yury G. Kudryashov (Jan 29 2022 at 22:35):

Or more generally, p depends on quotient.lift f hf a?

Yaël Dillies (Jan 29 2022 at 22:35):

Something along those lines, yeah. I can't tell you exactly offhand, because my use case is not the most general one.
