Abstract
It is often useful to be able to deal with locales in terms of presentations of their underlying frames, or equivalently, the geometric theories which they classify. Given a presentation for a locale, presentations for its sublocales can be obtained by simply appending additional relations, but the case of quotient locales is more subtle. We provide simple procedures for obtaining presentations of open quotients, proper quotients or general triquotients from presentations of the parent locale. The results are proved with the help of the suplattice, preframe and dcpo coverage theorems and applied to obtain presentations of the circle from ones for \(\mathbb {R}\) and [0, 1].
期刊介绍:
Applied Categorical Structures focuses on applications of results, techniques and ideas from category theory to mathematics, physics and computer science. These include the study of topological and algebraic categories, representation theory, algebraic geometry, homological and homotopical algebra, derived and triangulated categories, categorification of (geometric) invariants, categorical investigations in mathematical physics, higher category theory and applications, categorical investigations in functional analysis, in continuous order theory and in theoretical computer science. In addition, the journal also follows the development of emerging fields in which the application of categorical methods proves to be relevant.
Applied Categorical Structures publishes both carefully refereed research papers and survey papers. It promotes communication and increases the dissemination of new results and ideas among mathematicians and computer scientists who use categorical methods in their research.
