+\section{Static Semantics}
+
+In this section, we give a declarative presentation of Ur's typing rules and related judgments. Inference is the subject of the next section; here, we assume that an oracle has filled in all wildcards with concrete values.
+
+Since there is significant mutual recursion among the judgments, we introduce them all before beginning to give rules. We use the same variety of contexts throughout this section, implicitly introducing new sorts of context entries as needed.
+\begin{itemize}
+\item $\Gamma \vdash c :: \kappa$ assigns a kind to a constructor in a context.
+\item $\Gamma \vdash c \sim c$ proves the disjointness of two record constructors; that is, that they share no field names. We overload the judgment to apply to pairs of field names as well.
+\item $\Gamma \vdash c \hookrightarrow \overline{c}$ proves that record constructor $c$ decomposes into set $\overline{c}$ of field names and record constructors.
+\item $\Gamma \vdash c \equiv c$ proves the computational equivalence of two constructors. This is often called a \emph{definitional equality} in the world of type theory.
+\item $\Gamma \vdash e : \tau$ is a standard typing judgment.
+\item $\Gamma \vdash M : S$ is the module signature checking judgment.
+\item $\mt{proj}(M, S, V)$ is a partial function for projecting a signature item from a signature $S$, given the module $M$ that we project from. $V$ may be $\mt{con} \; x$, $\mt{val} \; x$, $\mt{signature} \; X$, or $\mt{structure} \; X$. The parameter $M$ is needed because the projected signature item may refer to other items of $S$.
