Intuitionistic Formal Spaces — A First Communication

  • Chapter
Mathematical Logic and Its Applications

Abstract

The notion of formal space was introduced by Fourman and Grayson [FG] only a few years ago, but it is only a recent though important step of a long story whose roots involve such names as Brouwer and Stone and whose development is due to mathematicians from different fields, mainly algebraic geometry, category theory and logic.
