The Double Powerlocale and Exponentiation: a Case Study in Geometric Logic

نویسنده

چکیده

If X is a locale, then its double powerlocale PX is defined to be PU(PL(X)) where PU and PL are the upper and lower powerlocale constructions. We prove various results relating it to exponentiation of locales, including the following. First, if X is a locale for which the exponential S exists (where S is the Sierpinski locale), then PX is an exponential S X . Second, if in addition W is a locale for which PW is homeomorphic to S , then X is an exponential S . The work uses geometric reasoning, i.e. reasoning stable under pullback along geometric morphisms, and this enables the locales to be discussed in terms of their points as though they were spaces. It relies on a number of geometricity results including those for locale presentations and for powerlocales.

The connected Vietoris powerlocale

The Vietoris powerlocale V X is a point-free analogue of the Vietoris hyperspace. In this paper we introduce and study a sublocale V X whose points are those points of V X that (considered as sublocales of X) satisfy a constructively strong connectedness property. V c is a strong monad on the category of locales. The strength gives rise to a product map × : V X × V Y → V (X × Y ), showing that ...

Investigation of thermal behavior of traditional geometric patterns (khavoon chini) in the external hollow walls of Dezful double-walled walls in order to revive cultural identity

Abstract Traditional geometric patterns in architecture and decoration are rooted in the cultural identity of each region and in cities such as Dezful, they display its special cultural and identity characteristics. In Dezful, the geometric patterns of the bricks, known as the khavoon chini are one of the hallmarks of the citychr('39')s cultural identity. Due to the hot climate of Dezful, the ...

Efficient elliptic curve cryptosystems

Elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) are new generations of public key cryptosystems that have a smaller key size for the same level of security. The exponentiation on elliptic curve is the most important operation in ECC, so when the ECC is put into practice, the major problem is how to enhance the speed of the exponentiation. It is thus of great interest to develop algorithms for exponentiation...

Positivity relations on a locale

This paper analyses the notion of a positivity relation of Formal Topology from the point of view of the theory of Locales. It is shown that a positivity relation on a locale corresponds to a suitable class of points of its lower powerlocale. In particular, closed subtopologies associated to the positivity relation correspond to overt (that is, with open domain) weakly closed sublocales. Finall...
