Bifinite Chu Spaces

Bifinite Chu Spaces

This paper studies colimits of sequences of finite Chu spaces and their ramifications. Besides generic Chu spaces, we consider extensional and biextensional variants. In the corresponding categories we first characterize the monics and then the existence (or the lack thereof) of the desired colimits. In each case, we provide a characterization of the finite objects in terms of monomorphisms/inj...

Nabla Algebras and Chu Spaces

This paper is a study into some properties and applications of Moss’ coalgebraic or ‘cover’ modality ∇. First we present two axiomatizations of this operator, and we prove these axiomatizations to be sound and complete with respect to basic modal and positive modal logic, respectively. More precisely, we introduce the notions of a modal ∇-algebra and of a positive modal ∇-algebra. We establish ...

Generalizing Topology via Chu Spaces

By using the representational power of Chu spaces we define the notion of a generalized topological space (or GTS, for short), i.e., a mathematical structure that generalizes the notion of a topological space. We demonstrate that these topological spaces have as special cases known topological spaces. Furthermore, we develop the various topological notions and concepts for GTS. Moreover, since ...

A Topologist's View of Chu Spaces

For a symmetric monoidal-closed category X and any object K, the category of K-Chu spaces is small-topological over X and small cotopological over X . Its full subcategory of M-extensive K-Chu spaces is topological over X when X is Mcomplete, for any morphism class M. Often this subcategory may be presented as a full coreflective subcategory of Diers’ category of affine K-spaces. Hence, in addi...
