Abstract

In a recent note (Palmgren, 2005) Erik Palmgren has shown that, in a sufficiently strong version of Martin-Löf’s type theory (Martin-Löf, 1984) the category of set-presented formal topologies has coequalisers. We refer the reader to (Palmgren, 2005) for the background motivation for this result.
