Quasitopos

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, specifically category theory, a quasitopos is a generalization of a topos. A topos has a subobject classifier classifying all subobjects, but in a quasitopos, only strong subobjects are classified. Quasitoposes are also required to be finitely cocomplete and locally cartesian closed.[1] A solid quasitopos is one for which 0 is a strong subobject of 1.[2]
