Idea

We describe conditions under which dependent products are decidable.

Decidablitilty of dependent products over coproducts

is-decidable-Π-coproduct :
  {l1 l2 l3 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : UU l2} {C : A + B → UU l3} →
  is-decidable ((a : A) → C (inl a)) → is-decidable ((b : B) → C (inr b)) →
  is-decidable ((x : A + B) → C x)
is-decidable-Π-coproduct {C = C} dA dB =
  is-decidable-equiv
    ( equiv-dependent-universal-property-coproduct C)
    ( is-decidable-product dA dB)

Decidability of dependent products over Maybe

is-decidable-Π-Maybe :
  {l1 l2 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : Maybe A → UU l2} →
  is-decidable ((x : A) → B (unit-Maybe x)) → is-decidable (B exception-Maybe) →
  is-decidable ((x : Maybe A) → B x)
is-decidable-Π-Maybe {B = B} du de =
  is-decidable-equiv
    ( equiv-dependent-universal-property-Maybe B)
    ( is-decidable-product du de)

Decidability of dependent products over an equivalence

is-decidable-Π-equiv :
  {l1 l2 l3 l4 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : UU l2} {C : A → UU l3} {D : B → UU l4}
  (e : A ≃ B) (f : (x : A) → C x ≃ D (map-equiv e x)) →
  is-decidable ((x : A) → C x) → is-decidable ((y : B) → D y)
is-decidable-Π-equiv {D = D} e f = is-decidable-equiv' (equiv-Π D e f)

is-decidable-Π-equiv' :
  {l1 l2 l3 l4 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : UU l2} {C : A → UU l3} {D : B → UU l4}
  (e : A ≃ B) (f : (x : A) → C x ≃ D (map-equiv e x)) →
  is-decidable ((y : B) → D y) → is-decidable ((x : A) → C x)
is-decidable-Π-equiv' {D = D} e f = is-decidable-equiv (equiv-Π D e f)
