Topical categories of domains

نویسنده

  • Steven J. Vickers
چکیده

It is shown how many techniques of categorical domain theory can be expressed in the general context of topical categories (where \topical" means internal in the category Top of Grothendieck toposes with geometric morphisms). The underlying topos machinery is hidden by using a geometric form of constructive mathematics, which enables toposes as \generalized topological spaces" to be treated in a transparently spatial way, and also shows the constructivity of the arguments. The theory of strongly algebraic (SFP) domains is given as a case study in which the topical category is Cartesian closed.

A note on the problem when FS-domains coincide with RB-domains

In this paper, we introduce the notion of super finitely separating functions which gives a characterization of RB-domains. Then we prove that FS-domains and RB-domains are equivalent in some special cases by the following three claims: a dcpo is an RB-domain if and only if there exists an approximate identity for it consisting of super finitely separating functions; a consistent join-semilatti...

A comparison between systemic psoralen plus ultraviolet A therapy and topical clobetasol in the treatment of vitiligo

Background: Topical corticosteroids and oral psoralen plus ultraviolet A radiation (PUVA therapy) are two common treatment methods for vitiligo. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy, complications and patterns of repigmentation of these two methods. Methods: This prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted from July 2007 to October 2008. Patients with disseminated vitiligo ...

A duality between fuzzy domains and strongly completely distributive $L$-ordered sets

The aim of this paper is to establish a fuzzy version of the dualitybetween domains and completely distributive lattices. All values aretaken in a fixed frame $L$. A definition of (strongly) completelydistributive $L$-ordered sets is introduced. The main result inthis paper is that the category of fuzzy domains is dually equivalentto the category of strongly completely distributive $L$-ordereds...

Web Directories as Topical Context

In this paper we explore whether the Open Directory (or DMOZ) can be used to classify queries into topical categories on different levels and whether we can use this topical context to improve retrieval performance. We have set up a user study to let test persons explicitly classify queries into topical categories. Categories are either chosen freely from DMOZ, or from a list of suggestions cre...

Explicit extraction of topical context

This article studies one of the main bottlenecks in providing more effective information access: the poverty on the query end. We explore whether users can classify keyword queries into categories from the DMOZ directory on different levels and whether this topical context can help retrieval performance. We have conducted a user study to let participants classify queries into DMOZ categories, e...
