A congruence relation of an algebra 𝑨
is defined to be an equivalence relation
that is compatible with the basic operations of 𝑨
. This concept can be
represented in a number of alternative but equivalent ways.
Formally, we define a record type (IsCongruence
) to represent the property of
being a congruence, and we define a Sigma type (Con
) to represent the type of
congruences of a given algebra.
record IsCongruence (𝑨 : Algebra α)(θ : BinRel ∣ 𝑨 ∣ ρ) : Type(ov ρ ⊔ α) where constructor mkcon field is-equivalence : IsEquivalence θ is-compatible : compatible 𝑨 θ Con : (𝑨 : Algebra α) → Type(α ⊔ ov ρ) Con {α}{ρ}𝑨 = Σ[ θ ∈ ( BinRel ∣ 𝑨 ∣ ρ ) ] IsCongruence 𝑨 θ
Each of these types captures what it means to be a congruence and they are equivalent in the sense that each implies the other. One implication is the “uncurry” operation and the other is the second projection.
IsCongruence→Con : {𝑨 : Algebra α}(θ : BinRel ∣ 𝑨 ∣ ρ) → IsCongruence 𝑨 θ → Con 𝑨 IsCongruence→Con θ p = θ , p Con→IsCongruence : {𝑨 : Algebra α} → ((θ , _) : Con{α}{ρ} 𝑨) → IsCongruence 𝑨 θ Con→IsCongruence θ = ∥ θ ∥
We now defined the zero relation 0[_]
and build the trivial congruence,
which has 0[_]
as its underlying relation. Observe that 0[_]
is equivalent to
the identity relation ≡
and is obviously an equivalence relation.

A concrete example is ⟪𝟎⟫[ 𝑨 ╱ θ ]
, presented in the next subsection.
In many areas of abstract mathematics the quotient of an algebra 𝑨
with
respect to a congruence relation θ
of 𝑨
plays an important role. This quotient
is typically denoted by 𝑨 / θ
and Agda allows us to define and express quotients
using this standard notation.
_╱_ : (𝑨 : Algebra α) → Con{α}{ρ} 𝑨 → Algebra (α ⊔ suc ρ) 𝑨 ╱ θ = (∣ 𝑨 ∣ / ∣ θ ∣) , -- domain of quotient algebra λ 𝑓 𝑎 → ⟪ (𝑓 ̂ 𝑨)(λ i → IsBlock.blk ∥ 𝑎 i ∥) ⟫ -- ops of quotient algebra
Example. If we adopt the notation 𝟎[ 𝑨 ╱ θ ]
for the zero (or identity)
relation on the quotient algebra 𝑨 ╱ θ
, then we define the zero relation as
follows.
𝟘[_╱_] : (𝑨 : Algebra α)(θ : Con{α}{ρ} 𝑨) → BinRel (∣ 𝑨 ∣ / ∣ θ ∣)(α ⊔ suc ρ) 𝟘[ 𝑨 ╱ θ ] = λ u v → u ≡ v
From this we easily obtain the zero congruence of 𝑨 ╱ θ
by applying the Δ
function defined above.
𝟎[_╱_] : {α : Level}(𝑨 : Algebra α){ρ : Level}(θ : Con {α}{ρ}𝑨) → swelldef 𝓥 (α ⊔ suc ρ) → Con (𝑨 ╱ θ) 𝟎[_╱_] {α} 𝑨 {ρ} θ wd = let 0eq = 0[ ∣ 𝑨 ╱ θ ∣ ]Equivalence in ∣ 0eq ∣ , mkcon ∥ 0eq ∥ (0[ 𝑨 ╱ θ ]Compatible {ρ} wd)
Finally, the following elimination rule is sometimes useful (but it ‘cheats’ a lot by baking in a large amount of extensionality that is miraculously true).
