Idea

Given a univalent universe 𝒰, we can define two closely related functors acting on all types. First there is the covariant functor given by

  P_𝒰(A) := Σ (X : 𝒰), X → A.

This is a polynomial endofunctor. Second, there is the contravariant functor given by

  P^𝒰(A) := A → 𝒰.

If the type A is locally 𝒰-small, then there is a map φ_A : P_𝒰(A) → P^𝒰(A). This map is natural in A, and it is always an embedding. Furthermore, the map φ_A is an equivalence if and only if A is 𝒰-small.

Definitions

The polynomial endofunctor of a universe

type-polynomial-endofunctor-UU :
  (l : Level) {l1 : Level} (A : UU l1) → UU (lsuc l ⊔ l1)
type-polynomial-endofunctor-UU l = Slice l

map-polynomial-endofunctor-UU :
  (l : Level) {l1 l2 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : UU l2} (f : A → B) →
  type-polynomial-endofunctor-UU l A → type-polynomial-endofunctor-UU l B
map-polynomial-endofunctor-UU l = map-polynomial-endofunctor (UU l) (λ X → X)

Type families

type-exp-UU : (l : Level) {l1 : Level} → UU l1 → UU (lsuc l ⊔ l1)
type-exp-UU l A = A → UU l

map-exp-UU :
  (l : Level) {l1 l2 : Level} {A : UU l1} {B : UU l2} (f : A → B) →
  type-exp-UU l B → type-exp-UU l A
map-exp-UU l f P = P ∘ f

Properties

If A is locally l-small, then we can construct an embedding type-polynomial-endofunctor l A ↪ type-exp-UU A

          ( equiv-funext)))
      ( is-torsorial-Id (X , f)))
    ( λ Y → ap (map-type-duality H))
