Tripos theory in retrospect
Abstract:
explain in what sense Higg's description of sheaf toposes as H-valued sets and Hyland's realizability toposes are instances of the same construction. The construction itself can be seen as the universal solution to the problem of realizing the predicates of a first order hyperdoctrine as subobjects in a logos with effective equivalence relations. In this note it is shown that the resulting logos is actually a topos if and only if the original hyperdoctrine satisfies a certain comprehension property. Triposes satisfy this property, but there are examples of non-triposes satisfying this form of comprehension. 1.
