`liftCopy`🔗

Definition

Lifts a copy kernel by lifting the carrier type.

def

liftCopy (e : Lean.Expr) (maxLvl : Lean.Level)
  (proofs : List Lean.Expr) : Lean.MetaM (Lean.Expr × List Lean.Expr)
liftCopy (e : Lean.Expr)
  (maxLvl : Lean.Level)
  (proofs : List Lean.Expr) :
  Lean.MetaM (Lean.Expr × List Lean.Expr)

Code

def liftCopy (e : Expr) (maxLvl : Level) (proofs : List Expr) :
    MetaM (Expr × List Expr) := do
  unless e.isAppOf ``Kernel.copy do
    throwError "Expected the copy kernel, but got {e}."
  let (X, _, xLvl, _) ← getTypesFromKernel e
  let ex ← constructMeasurableEquiv X xLvl maxLvl
  let (X', _) ← getTypesFromMeasurableEquiv ex
  let copy_lift_proof ← mkAppM ``copy_lift #[ex]
  return (← mkAppOptM ``Kernel.copy #[X', none], copy_lift_proof :: proofs)

This is the tool's own reading of one build's recorded axioms, and it is not robust against an author who wants it to pass. Checking meant to be relied on should go through Comparator, which replays the proof through the kernel from an export against an explicit list of permitted axioms.
