$\sigma$-locales and Booleanization in Formal Topology
نویسنده
چکیده
A σ-frame is a poset with countable joins and finite meets in which binary meets distribute over countable joins. Aim of this paper is to present σ-frames, actually σ-locales, as a branch of Formal Topology, that is, intuitionistic and predicative pointfree topology. We show that every σframe L can be presented as the lattice of Lindelöf elements (those whose covers admit countable subcovers) of a formal topology of a specific kind which, in its turn, corresponds to the free frame over L. We then give a constructive characterization of the smallest dense σ-sublocale of a given σ-locale, thus providing a “σ-version” of a Boolean locale.

$L$-enriched topological systems---a common framework of $L$-topology and $L$-frames
Employing the notions of the strong $L$-topology introduced by Zhangand the $L$-frame introduced by Yao and the concept of $L$-enrichedtopological system defined in the present paper, we constructadjunctions among the categories {bf St$L$-Top} of strong$L$-topological spaces, {bf S$L$-Loc} of strict $L$-locales and{bf $L$-EnTopSys} of $L$-enriched topological systems. All of theseconcepts are ...
متن کاملUniformities and covering properties for partial frames (I)
Partial frames provide a rich context in which to do pointfree structured and unstructured topology. A small collection of axioms of an elementary nature allows one to do much traditional pointfree topology, both on the level of frames or locales, and that of uniform or metric frames. These axioms are sufficiently general to include as examples bounded distributive...
متن کاملThe function ring functors of pointfree topology revisited
This paper establishes two new connections between the familiar function ring functor ${mathfrak R}$ on the category ${bf CRFrm}$ of completely regular frames and the category {bf CR}${mathbf sigma}${bf Frm} of completely regular $sigma$-frames as well as their counterparts for the analogous functor ${mathfrak Z}$ on the category {bf ODFrm} of 0-dimensional frames, given by the integer-valued f...
متن کاملHeyting-valued interpretations for Constructive Set Theory
The theory of locales [23] has a twofold interplay with intuitionistic mathematics: first of all, the internal logic of toposes and intuitionistic set theories provide suitable settings for the development of the theory of locales [24], and secondly, the notion of a locale determines two important forms of toposes and of interpretations for intuitionistic set theories, namely localic toposes [2...
متن کاملMathematical Structures for Computable Topology and Geometry
Topological notions and methods have successfully been applied in various areas of computer science. Computerized geometrical constructions have many applications in engineering. The seminar we propose will concentrate on mathematical structures underlying both computable topology and geometry. Due to the digital nature of most applications in computer science these structures have to be differ...
