QRB, QFS, and the Probabilistic Powerdomain
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the first author’s QRB-domains coincide with Li and Xu’s QFS-domains, and also with Lawson-compact quasi-continuous dcpos, with stably-compact locally finitary compact spaces, with sober QFSspaces, and with sober QRB-spaces. The first three coincidences were discovered independently by Lawson and Xi. The equivalence with sober QFS-spaces is then applied to give a novel, direct proof that the probabilistic powerdomain of a QRB-domain is a QRB-domain. This improves upon a previous, similar result, which was limited to pointed, second-countable

QRB-Domains and the Probabilistic Powerdomain
Is there any cartesian-closed category of continuous domains that would be closed under Jones and Plotkin’s probabilistic powerdomain construction? This is a major open problem in the area of denotational semantics of probabilistic higher-order languages. We relax the question, and look for quasi-continuous dcpos instead. We introduce a natural class of such quasi-continuous dcpos, the !QRB-dom...
متن کاملThe Extended Probabilistic Powerdomain Monad over Stably Compact Spaces
For the semantics of probabilistic features in programming mainly two approaches are used for building models. One is the Giry monad of Borel probability measures over metric spaces, and the other is Jones’ probabilistic powerdomain monad [6] over dcpos (directed complete partial orders). This paper places itself in the second domain theoretical tradition. The probabilistic powerdomain monad is...
متن کاملThe troublesome probabilistic powerdomain
In [12] it is shown that the probabilistic powerdomain of a continuous domain is again continuous. The category of continuous domains, however, is not cartesian closed, and one has to look at subcategories such as RB, the retracts of bifinite domains. [8] offers a proof that the probabilistic powerdomain construction can be restricted to RB. In this paper, we give a counterexample to Graham’s p...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Powerdomain of Evaluations
We give a probabilistic powerdomain construction on the category of inductively complete partial orders; it is the partial order of continuous [0, 11-valued evaluations on the Scott topology. By means of a theory of integration with respect to such evaluations, the powerdomain is shown to be a monad, and indeed one gets a model for Moggi’s computational lambda-calculus. One can also solve recur...
متن کاملThe Probabilistic Powerdomain for Stably Compact Spaces via Compact Ordered Spaces
Stably compact spaces Xs can be described as being derived from compact ordered spaces X by weakening their topology to the open upper sets. In this paper the probabilistic powerdomain of a stably compact space Xs is investigated using the compact ordered space X and classical tools from measure theory and functional analysis. This allows to derive in a unified and elegant way known and new res...
