[3WFTop] Third Workshop on Formal Topology. First Announcement.
3WFTop First Announcement: THIRD WORKSHOP ON FORMAL TOPOLOGY Accademia Galileiana, Padua (Italy) 9-12 May 2007 workshop 7-8 May 2007 tutorials This is the third of a series of successful meetings on the development of Formal Topology and its connections with related approaches. The first two have been held in Padua, 1997, and Venice, 2002. For more information on 3WFTop see http://www.3wftop.math.unipd.it/ What is formal topology When topology is developed in a strictly constructive way, for instance over Martin-Loef's type theory, points cannot be given primitively and the pointfree approach is fundamental. This is the reason why it is called formal. Formal topology has now become an important tool in constructive mathematics.
