Fibred sets within a predicative and constructive effective topos
Abstract
We describe the fibrational structure of sets within the predicative variant pEff of Hyland's Effective Topos Eff previously introduced in Feferman's predicative theory of non-iterative fixpoints ID1. Our structural analysis can be carried out in constructive and predicative variants of Eff within extensions of Aczel's Constructive Zermelo-Fraenkel Set Theory. All this shows that the full subcategory of discrete objects of Hyland's Effective topos Eff contains already a fibred predicative topos validating the formal Church's thesis, even when both are formalized in a constructive metatheory.
