1. Notation [00EO]
1. Notation [00EO]
For a type write for .
2. Notation [00EP]
2. Notation [00EP]
For a -type and write for the set .
3. Notation [00EQ]
3. Notation [00EQ]
Given a 1-type , denote by the set cardinality of the set of automorphisms. The universal property of the set truncation gives a unique map from to , that is compatible with the Automorphism-Cardinality. By abuse of notation we also denote this map by .

4. Rational Numbers [00ES]
We assume some construction of type of rational numbers. We assume that this type is a set with decidable equality, equipped with the usual addition and multiplication making it a field. We denote the field of rational numbers with . For a sketched construction see the HoTT book, section 11., section 11.1.
TODO: Make very clear what for what properties we need witnesses and find a construction we can borrow.

Definition 5. Groupoid Cardinality of 1-types [00ER]
Let be a 1-type such that is finite, and for all is finite. Define the groupoid cardinality of as the rational number
where denotes a finite sum over rational numbers indexed by the finite set .
