in addition to exploring constructions and properties of limits and colimits in categories of topologicalalgebras, we study special subcategories of topological algebras and their properties. in particular, undercertain conditions, reflective subcategories when paired with topological structures give rise to reflectivesubcategories and epireflective subcategories give rise to epireflective subc...

motivated by the recent study on categorical properties of latticevalued topology, the paper considers a generalization of the notion of topological system introduced by s. vickers, providing an algebraic and a coalgebraic category of the new structures. as a result, the nature of the category   topsys   of s. vickers gets clari ed, and a metatheorem is stated, claiming that (latticevalu...

This paper presents the concepts of $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces and stratified $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces. It is shown that the category of stratified $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces is a bireflective subcategory of the category of $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces, and the former is a Cartesian-closed topological category. Also, it is proved that the category of stratified $...

In this paper we provide a common framework for different stratified $LM$-convergence spaces introduced recently. To this end, we slightly alter the definition of a stratified $LMN$-convergence tower space. We briefly discuss the categorical properties and show that the category of these spaces is a Cartesian closed and extensional topological category. We also study the relationship of our cat...

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...

We show that the lattice of compactifications of a topological group $G$ is a complete lattice which is isomorphic to the lattice of all closed normal subgroups of the Bohr compactification $bG$ of $G$. The correspondence defines a contravariant functor from the category of topological groups to the category of complete lattices. Some properties of the compactification lattice of a topological ...

an object $x$ of a category $mathbf{c}$ with finite limits is called exponentiable if the functor $-times x:mathbf{c}rightarrow mathbf{c}$ has a right adjoint. there are many characterizations of the exponentiable  spaces in the category $mathbf{top}$ of topological spaces. here, we study the exponentiable objects in the category $mathbf{stop}$ of soft topological spaces which is a generalizati...

the main purpose of this paper is to introduce a concept of$l$-fuzzifying topological groups (here $l$ is a completelydistributive lattice) and discuss some of their basic properties andthe structures. we prove that its corresponding $l$-fuzzifyingneighborhood structure is translation invariant. a characterizationof such topological groups in terms of the corresponding$l$-fuzzifying neighborhoo...

In this paper, the concepts of derived sets and derived operators are generalized to $(L, M)$-fuzzy topological spaces and their characterizations are given.What is more, it is shown that the category of stratified $(L, M)$-fuzzy topological spaces,the category of stratified $(L, M)$-fuzzy closure spaces and the category of stratified $(L, M)$-fuzzy quasi-neighborhood spaces are all isomorphic ...

In this paper, we formalize the Menger probabilistic normed space as a category in which its objects are the Menger probabilistic normed spaces and its morphisms are fuzzy continuous operators. Then, we show that the category of probabilistic normed spaces is isomorphicly a subcategory of the category of topological vector spaces. So, we can easily apply the results of topological vector spaces...
