QUESTIONS Level 1: CompQ reified + classifier-conditioned axioms
Implements docs/QUESTIONS.md Level 1 (structural reification only).

CubicalTransport/Question.lean:
- CompQ structure (env, binder, body, φ, u, t) — the CCHM
  partial-element-filler question, reified as data.
- CompQ.ask = eval env (.comp …); CompQ.Equiv = ask-equality
  (refl/symm/trans).
- CompQ.ofTransp smart constructor — every transport is a
  degenerate comp (u = t).
- Classifiers: IsConstLine, IsFullFace, IsEmptyFace, IsTransport,
  IsPathLine, IsGlueLine, IsPiLine, IsSigmaLine, IsIndLine,
  IsIntervalLine, IsUnivLine.
- Restated as CompQ.ask theorems: ask_of_full_face (C1),
  ask_of_empty_face (C2), ask_of_const_line (hcomp reduction),
  ask_of_pi_line (vCompFun packaging), ask_of_stuck (residual).
- ask_of_transport_full_face — the bridge corollary linking
  CompQ.ofTransp to the legacy eval_transp_top axiom under the
  standard typing premise (base dim-absent in the binder).
- Decidable instance for IsConstLine (Bool-valued); face/body-
  shape decidability deferred to Level 1.5 (needs cross-package
  DecidableEq from Topolei.Cubical.DecEq).

No new axioms; all five restated theorems derive from existing
eval_comp_* axioms in Eval.lean.  Levels 2 (simp routing) and 3
(question-driven proofs) deferred per QUESTIONS.md §4.

CubicalTransport/FFITest.lean: 3 new CompQ smoke tests (ask
delegation, ofTransp on .interval, IsConstLine decidability).
Test count: 81 → 84 passing.

Companion docs: QUESTIONS.md (philosophy), ALGEBRA_PLAN.md (the
macro layer this enables), EULERIAN.md (poetic record).

cubical-transport-hott-lean4

A Lean 4 implementation of cubical-transport homotopy type theory (CCHM-flavor), with a fast Rust kernel exposed through C ABI.

The Lean side defines the syntax, semantics, and soundness theorems. The Rust side discharges the per-step β-rules of the evaluator. Lean axioms are routed through @[implemented_by] to Rust functions that return Lean objects in the same shape Lean would have produced; the soundness layer (CubicalTransport/Soundness.lean) certifies the backend at the boundary, so the kernel speed of the Rust code preserves the Lean-level proofs.

What's here

  • CubicalTransport/ — 22 Lean modules for syntax, substitution, dimensional structure, faces, typing, evaluation (eval / value / readback), transport, Glue, composition, and the soundness theorems.
  • native/cubical/ — Rust kernel (#![no_std], dual-target native staticlib + cdylib, wasm32 cdylib).
  • CubicalTest.lean, CubicalBench.lean — engine smoke + property tests (62/62 passing) and microbenchmarks.

Consuming the engine (with permission)

This Software is proprietary. See LICENSE — no use is granted by virtue of the repository being public. The instructions below are for the copyright holder and any party with prior written consent from mgorog@gmail.com.

Add as a Lake dependency from another Lean 4 project:

[[require]]
name = "cubicalTransport"
path = "../cubical-transport-hott-lean4"   # or git = "..."

Then import CubicalTransport.Syntax, import CubicalTransport.Eval, etc. Link against native/cubical/target/release/libtopolei_cubical.a in your own moreLinkArgs so the FFI symbols resolve.

Build

(cd native/cubical && cargo build --release)
lake build
./.lake/build/bin/cubical-test    # 62/62 tests pass
