This video is part of the playlist "Lambda Cube Unboxed", a series of 13 videos that explores and exposes the basics of (un-)typed λ-calculus including higher-order parametric polymorphism and dependent types. The resources, from which this video series extracts the offered material, are listed in the description of the playlist.

This video (4): 
After discussing polymorphism in the previous two videos, we return to the simply typed lambda calculus to explore the notion of “types depending on types” as a different way of extending simple types. This leads us to a type system known as lambda weak omega.
