A topos for continuous logic

Logic 2021-07-23 v1 Category Theory

Abstract

We suggest an ordering for the predicates in continuous logic so that the semantics of continuous logic can be formulated as a hyperdoctrine. We show that this hyperdoctrine can be embedded into the hyperdoctrine of subobjects of a suitable Grothendieck topos. For this embedding we use a simplification of the hyperdoctrine for continuous logic, whose category of equivalence relations is equivalent to the category of complete metric spaces and uniformly continuous maps.
