摘要
Martin-Lof's type theory has strong existential elimination (dependent sum type) that allows to prove the full axiom of choice. However the theory is intuitionistic. We give a condition on strong existential elimination that makes it computationally compatible with classical logic. With this restriction, we lose the full axiom of choice but, thanks to a lazily-evaluated coinductive representation of quantification, we are still able to constructively prove the axiom of countable choice, the axiom of dependent choice, and a form of bar induction in ways that make each of them computationally compatible with classical logic.
