    Convergence and quantale-enriched categories

    Get PDF
    Generalising Nachbin's theory of "topology and order", in this paper we continue the study of quantale-enriched categories equipped with a compact Hausdorff topology. We compare these V\mathcal{V}-categorical compact Hausdorff spaces with ultrafilter-quantale-enriched categories, and show that the presence of a compact Hausdorff topology guarantees Cauchy completeness and (suitably defined) codirected completeness of the underlying quantale enriched category

    The Convergence of Filters on Quantales and Its Hausdorffness

    Get PDF
    In this paper, we introduce the definition of conergence of filters on quantale. Some characterizations of finit completeness and compactness of quantales are studied. At last, the Hausdorff property in quantale using the converence structure is presented.key words: Quantale; Point; ideal; Congerencen of filter; Hausdorff Propert

    An Algebraic Framework for Compositional Program Analysis

    Full text link
    The purpose of a program analysis is to compute an abstract meaning for a program which approximates its dynamic behaviour. A compositional program analysis accomplishes this task with a divide-and-conquer strategy: the meaning of a program is computed by dividing it into sub-programs, computing their meaning, and then combining the results. Compositional program analyses are desirable because they can yield scalable (and easily parallelizable) program analyses. This paper presents algebraic framework for designing, implementing, and proving the correctness of compositional program analyses. A program analysis in our framework defined by an algebraic structure equipped with sequencing, choice, and iteration operations. From the analysis design perspective, a particularly interesting consequence of this is that the meaning of a loop is computed by applying the iteration operator to the loop body. This style of compositional loop analysis can yield interesting ways of computing loop invariants that cannot be defined iteratively. We identify a class of algorithms, the so-called path-expression algorithms [Tarjan1981,Scholz2007], which can be used to efficiently implement analyses in our framework. Lastly, we develop a theory for proving the correctness of an analysis by establishing an approximation relationship between an algebra defining a concrete semantics and an algebra defining an analysis.Comment: 15 page

    Approximation in quantale-enriched categories

    Full text link
    Our work is a fundamental study of the notion of approximation in V-categories and in (U,V)-categories, for a quantale V and the ultrafilter monad U. We introduce auxiliary, approximating and Scott-continuous distributors, the way-below distributor, and continuity of V- and (U,V)-categories. We fully characterize continuous V-categories (resp. (U,V)-categories) among all cocomplete V-categories (resp. (U,V)-categories) in the same ways as continuous domains are characterized among all dcpos. By varying the choice of the quantale V and the notion of ideals, and by further allowing the ultrafilter monad to act on the quantale, we obtain a flexible theory of continuity that applies to partial orders and to metric and topological spaces. We demonstrate on examples that our theory unifies some major approaches to quantitative domain theory.Comment: 17 page

    Enriched lower separation axioms and the principle of enriched continuous extension

    Get PDF
    [EN] This paper presents a version of the lower separation axioms and the principle of enriched continuous extension for quantale-enriched topological spaces. As a remarkable result, among other things, we point out that in the case of commutative Girard quantales the principle of continuous extension holds for projective modules in Sup.The authors acknowledge support from the Basque Government (grant IT1483-22).
