# Large dependent pair types
```agda
module foundation.large-dependent-pair-types where
```
<details><summary>Imports</summary>
```agda
open import foundation.universe-levels
```

## Idea
When `B` is a family of large types over `A`, then we can form the large type of
pairs `pairω a b` consisting of an element `a : A` and an element `b : B a`.
Such pairs are called dependent pairs, since the type of the second component
depends on the first component.
## Definition
```agda
record Σω (A : UUω) (B : A → UUω) : UUω where
constructor pairω
field
prω1 : A
prω2 : B prω1
open Σω public
infixr 3 _,ω_
pattern _,ω_ a b = pairω a b
```
### Families on dependent pair types
```agda
module _
{l : Level} {A : UUω} {B : A → UUω}
where
fam-Σω : ((x : A) → B x → UU l) → Σω A B → UU l
fam-Σω C (pairω x y) = C x y
```
