JMeq is equivalent to (eq_dep Type [X]X)

Require Import Eqdep.

Lemma JMeq_eq_dep :
 forall (A B:Type) (x:A) (y:B), JMeq x y -> eq_dep Type (fun X => X) A x B y.
Proof.
destruct 1.
apply eq_dep_intro.
Qed.

Lemma eq_dep_JMeq :
 forall (A B:Type) (x:A) (y:B), eq_dep Type (fun X => X) A x B y -> JMeq x y.
Proof.
destruct 1.
apply JMeq_refl.
Qed.
