We prove the conjecture that any Grothendieck $(\infty,1)$-topos can be presented by a Quillen model category that interprets homotopy type theory with strict univalent universes. Thus, homotopy type theory can be used as a formal language for reasoning internally to $(\infty,1)$-toposes, just as higher-order logic is used for 1-toposes. As part of the proof, we give a new, more explicit, characterization of the fibrations in injective model structures on presheaf categories. In particular, we show that they generalize the coflexible algebras of 2-monad theory.

  1. Univalence without function extensionality

    cs.LO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 8.0

    Categorical univalence of a universe does not entail function extensionality, as shown by polynomial models of type theory that refute the latter while satisfying the former.

  2. Constructive higher sheaf models with applications to synthetic mathematics

    cs.LO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Constructive higher sheaf models of type theory with univalence and higher inductive types are constructed to underpin synthetic mathematics.

  3. Elementary $\infty$-toposes from type theory

    math.CT 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Categorical models of dependent type theory with sums, products, identity types and univalent universes present elementary ∞-toposes via ∞-localization, which also possess small subobject classifiers.

  4. Constructive higher sheaf models with applications to synthetic mathematics

    cs.LO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Develops constructive higher sheaf models of type theory to support synthetic mathematics with univalence and higher inductive types.

    math.CT 2025-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Establishes that the ancestry quotient of the free binary PROP is equivalent as a PROP to the PROP for non-counital cocommutative comonoids.
