The large dcpo of ordinals #282

Closed tomdjong closed 1 month ago

tomdjong commented 1 month ago

Maybe I'm missing something, but presumably the booleans form a small basis, just like for the type of all (small) propositions?

In source/DomainTheory/Examples/Ordinals.lagda https://github.com/martinescardo/TypeTopology/pull/282#discussion_r1624521386 :

  • δ : is-Directed Ordinals-DCPO (directify (family α))
  • δ = directify-is-directed (family α)
  • +Ordinals-DCPO-is-algebraic : is-algebraic-dcpo Ordinals-DCPO +Ordinals-DCPO-is-algebraic = ∣ Ordinals-DCPO-is-algebraic' ∣

  • +\end{code}

  • +Unlike many other examples, such as the dpcos in the Scott model of PCF, or +Scott's D∞, the dpco of ordinals, while algebraic, does not have a small +(compact) basis. If it did, we could take the join of all the basis elements to +obtain a greatest ordinal, which does not exist.

  • +\begin{code}

  • +Ordinals-DCPO-has-no-small-basis : ¬ (has-unspecified-small-basis Ordinals-DCPO)

Nice to have this counterexample formalized. I have yet to find a frame that does not have a small basis.

What about not-not stable propositions (without propositional resizing)?
