We formulate an elementary condition on an involutive quantaloidQ under which there is a distributive law from the Cauchy completion monad over the symmetrisation comonad on the category of Q-enriched categories. For such quantaloids, which we call Cauchy-bilateral quantaloids, it follows that the Cauchy completion of any symmetric Q-enriched category is again symmetric. Examples include Lawver...

We study properties of the quantale spectrum MaxA of an arbitrary unital C*-algebra A. In particular we show that the spatialization of MaxA with respect to one of the notions of spatiality in the literature yields the locale of closed ideals of A when A is commutative. We study under general conditions functors with this property, in addition requiring that colimits be preserved, and we conclu...

We provide algebraic semantics together with a sound and complete sequent calculus for information update due to epistemic actions. This semantics is flexible enough to accommodate incomplete as well as wrong information e.g. due to secrecy and deceit, as well as nested knowledge. We give a purely algebraic treatment of the muddy children puzzle, which moreover extends to situations where the c...

Based on the notion of $Q$-sup-lattices (a fuzzy counterpart of complete join-semilattices valuated in a commutative quantale), we present the concept of $Q$-sup-algebras -- $Q$-sup-lattices endowed with a collection of finitary operations compatible with the fuzzy joins. Similarly to the crisp case investigated in cite{zhang-laan}, we characterize their subalgebras and quotients, and following...

It is often stated that Frobenius quantales are necessarily unital. By taking negation as a primitive operation, we can define may not have unit. We develop the elementary theory of these structures and show, in particular, how to nuclei whose quotients quantales. This yields phase semantics representation theorem via Important examples arise from Raney’s notion tight Galois connection: endomap...

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...

In previous papers, several $T_{0}$ and Hausdorff objects in topological categories are introduced compared. The main objectives of this paper to characterize $\overline{T_{0}}$, $T_{0}$, $T_{1}$ pre-$\overline{T_{2}}$ the category quantale-valued closure space as well examine their mutual relationship.
