Complements in Distributive Allegories
نویسنده
چکیده
It is know in topos theory that axiom of choice implies that the topos is Boolean. In this paper we want to prove and generalize this result in the context of allegories. In particular, we will show that partial identities do have complements in distributive allegories with relational sums and total splittings assuming the axiom of choice. Furthermore, we will discuss possible modifications of the assumptions used in the that theorem.

Collagories for Relational Adhesive Rewriting
We define collagories essentially as “distributive allegories without zero morphisms”, and show that they are sufficient for accommodating the relation-algebraic approach to graph transformation. Collagories closely correspond to the adhesive categories important for the categorical DPO approach to graph transformation. but thanks to their relation-algebraic flavour provide a more accessible an...

We previously defined collagories essentially as “distributive allegories without zero morphisms”. Collagories are sufficient for accommodating the relation-algebraic approach to graph transformation, and closely correspond to the adhesive categories important for the categorical DPO approach to graph transformation. Heindel and Sobociński have recently characterised the Van-Kampen colimits use...
متن کاملDecidability of the equational theory of allegories
Freyd and Scedrov showed that the equational theory of representable allegories (essentially those allegories which have a settheoretic representation as relations) is decidable. This paper proves that the pure equational theory of allegories is decidable.
متن کاملDistributive ignorance implications of inquisitive and epistemic attitudes∗
Inquisitive attitude verbs like wonder do not just imply that their subject does not know the answer to the embedded question, but a stronger form of ignorance, which has been called distributive ignorance (Roelofsen and Uegaki, 2016). Similarly, if an epistemic attitude verb like believe takes a disjunctive complement, it implies that its subject considers all disjuncts possible. We present tw...

Mystic expression and interpretation has always been a challenging issue in the field of mystic language. This challenge, which stems from the inadequacy of language in dealing with mystic experiences, has led to the mystic application of the artistic possibilities of language. One such possibility is allegory. This article studies the allegories of light and water as two of the most significan...
