Abstract: We present an introduction to geometric logic and the mathematical structures associated with it, such as categorical logic and toposes. We also describe some of its applications in computer science including its potential as a logic for specification languages. (Update)

...are preserved by the inverse image functors of geometric morphisms. We shall actually use a different language, analogous to that of [18, 20], that makes a systematic distinction between toposes as generalized topological spaces for which we reserve the word topos...

...discussed briefly in connection with schema connectives, and with specifying and implementing operations. 1 Introduction In Vickers [10, 9] it was suggested rather briefly that an observational content of geometric logic made it a good candidate as a logic appropriate to...
