Regularity vs. constructive complete (co)distributivity

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: It is well known that a relation varphi between sets is regular if, and only if, mathcalKvarphi is completely distributive (cd), where mathcalKvarphi is the complete lattice consisting of fixed points of the Kan adjunction induced by varphi. For a small quantaloid mathcalQ, we investigate the mathcalQ-enriched version of this classical result, i.e., the regularity of mathcalQ-distributors versus the constructive complete distributivity (ccd) of mathcalQ-categories, and prove that "the dual of mathcalKvarphi is (ccd) implies varphi is regular implies mathcalKvarphi is (ccd)" for any mathcalQ-distributor varphi. Although the converse implications do not hold in general, in the case that mathcalQ is a commutative integral quantale, we show that these three statements are equivalent for any varphi if, and only if, mathcalQ is a Girard quantale.
