Subject: Paper on slice stability in Locale Theory
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2008 09:09:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1KQXSl-0001OP-TM@mailserv.mta.ca> (raw)

I was sorry not to be at the Calais meeting the other week and had hoped
to have the paper 

 

Aspects of slice stability in Locale Theory

 

http://www.christophertownsend.org/Documents/SliceStability_v30.pdf

 

ready for it. 

 

This paper proves that a particular axiomatic approach to locale theory
is slice stable and then uses this slice stability to prove some known
locale theory/topos theory results.

All the results are known (aside from a conjecture on localic
subgroupoids) so it is really an investigation into this particular
axiomatisation rather than a presentation of new results. 

It gives what I think is a novel proof of the well known slice stability
result: Loc/Y = Loc_Sh(Y). 

 

Feedback is welcome. For example, I have always attributed the result
Loc/Y = Loc_Sh(Y) to Joyal and Tierney. Am I right? 

 

Regards, Christopher
