The M construction as a multivariate polynomial functor. #
THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.
M types are potentially infinite tree-like structures. They are defined as the greatest fixpoint of a polynomial functor.
Main definitions #
M.mk
- constructorM.dest
- destructorM.corec
- corecursor: useful for formulating infinite, productive computationsM.bisim
- bisimulation: proof technique to show the equality of infinite objects
Implementation notes #
Dual view of M-types:
Mp
: polynomial functorM
: greatest fixed point of a polynomial functor
Specifically, we define the polynomial functor Mp
as:
- A := a possibly infinite tree-like structure without information in the nodes
- B := given the tree-like structure
t
,B t
is a valid path from the root oft
to any given node.
As a result Mp.obj α
is made of a dataless tree and a function from
its valid paths to values of α
The difference with the polynomial functor of an initial algebra is
that A
is a possibly infinite tree.
