Abstract
The concept of Chu correspondences between formal contexts is introduced. The construction of formal concepts induces a functor \(\mathfrak{B}\) from the category of Chu correspondences ChuCors to the category \(\mathcal{S}lat\) of sup-preserving maps between complete lattices. It turns out that the category ChuCors has a *-autonomous category structure and the functor \(\mathfrak{B}\) is shown to preserve the *-autonomous category structure. Details are given in [4].
