Applications of Sup-lattice Enriched Category Theory to Sheaf Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
Grothendieck toposes are studied via the process of taking the associated Sl-enriched category of relations. It is shown that this process is adjoint to that of taking the topos of sheaves of an abstract category of relations. As a result, pullback and comma toposes are calculated in a new way. The calculations are used to give a new characterization of localic morphisms and to derive interpolation and conceptual completeness properties for a certain class of interpretations between geometric theories. A simple characterization of internal sup-lattices in terms of external Sl-enriched category theory is given.

Categorical Structures Enriched in a Quantaloid: Tensored and Cotensored Categories
A quantaloid is a sup-lattice-enriched category; our subject is that of categories, functors and distributors enriched in a base quantaloid Q. We show how cocomplete Q-categories are precisely those which are tensored and conically cocomplete, or alternatively, those which are tensored, cotensored and ‘order-cocomplete’. In fact, tensors and cotensors in a Q-category determine, and are determin...
متن کاملFuzzy Acts over Fuzzy Semigroups and Sheaves
lthough fuzzy set theory and sheaf theory have been developed and studied independently, Ulrich Hohle shows that a large part of fuzzy set theory is in fact a subfield of sheaf theory. Many authors have studied mathematical structures, in particular, algebraic structures, in both categories of these generalized (multi)sets. Using Hohle's idea, we show that for a (universal) algebra $A$, th...
متن کاملCategorically-algebraic topology and its applications
This paper introduces a new approach to topology, based on category theory and universal algebra, and called categorically-algebraic (catalg) topology. It incorporates the most important settings of lattice-valued topology, including poslat topology of S.~E.~Rodabaugh, $(L,M)$-fuzzy topology of T.~Kubiak and A.~v{S}ostak, and $M$-fuzzy topology on $L$-fuzzy sets of C.~Guido. Moreover, its respe...
متن کاملConvergence and quantale-enriched categories
Generalising Nachbin's theory of ``topology and order'', in this paper we continue the study of quantale-enriched categories equipped with a compact Hausdorff topology. We compare these $V$-categorical compact Hausdorff spaces with ultrafilter-quantale-enriched categories, and show that the presence of a compact Hausdorff topology guarantees Cauchy completeness and (suitably defined) ...
متن کامل2 00 8 On principally generated Q - modules in general , and skew local homeomorphisms in particular
Ordered sheaves on a small quantaloid Q have been defined in terms of Q-enriched categorical structures; they form a locally ordered category Ord(Q). It has previously been shown by the second author that the " free-cocompletion " KZ-doctrine on Ord(Q) has Mod(Q), the quantaloid of Q-modules, as category of Eilenberg-Moore algebras. In the first part of this paper we apply Q-enriched category t...
