There is a strong connection between models of type theory with a “static” universe of propositions and quasitopoi. In my talk, I will explore part of this connection by showing that a finitely complete category with a “universe of propositions” closed under existential quantification has a strong subobject classifier. This is in contrast to systems based on HoTT, where the principle of unique choice holds, and therefore propositions correspond to general subojects.
