Idea

The connected component of a universe UU l at a type A : UU l is the type of all X : UU l that are merely equivalent to A. More generally, we define the component of a universe UU l1 of types merely equal to A : UU l2.

Definition

The connected component of a universe with variable universe

component-UU-Level :
  (l1 : Level) {l2 : Level} (A : UU l2) → UU (lsuc l1 ⊔ l2)
component-UU-Level l1 A = type-subtype (mere-equiv-Prop {l2 = l1} A)

type-component-UU-Level :
  {l1 l2 : Level} {A : UU l2} → component-UU-Level l1 A → UU l1
type-component-UU-Level X = pr1 X

abstract
  mere-equiv-component-UU-Level :
    {l1 l2 : Level} {A : UU l2} (X : component-UU-Level l1 A) →
    mere-equiv A (type-component-UU-Level X)
  mere-equiv-component-UU-Level X = pr2 X

The connected component of a universe

component-UU :
  {l1 : Level} (A : UU l1) → UU (lsuc l1)
component-UU {l1} A = component-UU-Level l1 A

type-component-UU : {l1 : Level} {A : UU l1} (X : component-UU A) → UU l1
type-component-UU X = type-component-UU-Level X

abstract
  mere-equiv-component-UU :

    mere-equiv A (type-component-UU X)
