Abstract: Given a particular collection of categorical axioms, aimed at capturing properties of the category of locales, we show that if mathcalC is a category that satisfies the axioms then so too is the category [G,mathcalC] of G-objects, for any internal group G. To achieve this we prove a general categorical result: if an object S is double exponentiable in a category with finite products then so is its associated trivial G-object (S,pi2:GimesSightarrowS). The result holds even if S is not exponentiable. An example is given of a category mathcalC that satisfies the axioms, but for which there is no elementary topos mathcalE such that mathcalC is the category of locales over mathcalE. It is shown, in outline, how the results can be extended from groups to groupoids.
