Idea

The based strong induction principle for the natural numbers asserts that for any natural number k : ℕ and any family P of types over the natural numbers equipped with

  1. an element p0 : P k, and
  2. a function pS : (x : ℕ) → k ≤-ℕ x → ((y : ℕ) → k ≤-ℕ y ≤-ℕ x → P y) → P (x + 1) there is a function
  f := based-strong-ind-ℕ k P p0 pS : (x : ℕ) → k ≤-ℕ x → P k

satisfying

  1. f k K ＝ p0 for any K : k ≤-ℕ k, and
  2. f (n + 1) N' ＝ pS n N (λ m M H → f m M) for any N : k ≤-ℕ n and any N' : k ≤-ℕ n + 1.
