The equivalence relation on types given by equivalence (bijective correspondence) of types. Quotienting by this equivalence relation gives the cardinal numbers.

Equations
def Cardinal :
Type (u + 1)

Cardinal.{u} is the type of cardinal numbers in Type u, defined as the quotient of Type u by existence of an equivalence (a bijection with explicit inverse).
