Abstract

Our work that stems, in particular, from the research done by Aspinall and Compagnoni, and Luo attempts to provide a framework for systematical studying coercive subtyping in dependent type systems. Contrary to Aspinall and Compagnoni we define subtyping based on coercions instead of allowing term overloading. Contrary to Luo we implemented coercive subtyping as direct extension of \lambda P type system instead of introducing definitional mechanism, which is more powerfull but leads to more complicated presentation of a system.
