Abstract

In this paper we present and study a categorical formulation of the W-types of Martin-Löf. These are essentially free term algebras where the operations may have finite or infinite arity. It is shown that W-types are preserved under the construction of sheaves and Artin gluing. In the proofs we avoid using impredicative or nonconstructive principles
