Exercise 3.27 (Scott 1981, PRG-19, ยง3) โ (๐โ โ ๐โ) is a domain, via Exercise #
2.22
(For set theorists.) Scott asks for another proof that the family of
approximable mappings
f : ๐โ โ ๐โ is isomorphic to a domain, "by employing the general argument of
Exercise 2.22"
(the abstract representation theorem: any family of sets closed under non-empty
intersections and
directed unions is inclusion-isomorphic to a domain).
The set-theoretic content: identify each approximable map f with its graph
graph f = {(X, Y) โฃ X f Y} โ ๐ซ(ฮโ) ร ๐ซ(ฮโ), and let C = {graph f} be the
family of all such
graphs. Then
Cis closed under non-empty intersections โ the pointwise meetโ ๐ฎof a family of approximable maps (relateXtoYiff every member does) is again approximable (meetMap);Cis closed under directed unions โ the joinโ ๐ฎof a directed family (relateXtoYiff some member does) is again approximable, the consistency condition using directedness (joinMap).
So Exercise 2.22 (reprIso) re-presents C โ hence, via graph and Theorem 3.10
(funSpaceEquiv),
the whole function space |๐โ โ ๐โ| โ as the domain of a neighbourhood system,
without writing
down the step-set neighbourhoods of Definition 3.8 explicitly. This is exactly
Scott's "compare with
3.9/3.10" alternative.
Axioms. As flagged by Scott ("for set theorists"), this inherits
Classical.choice from
Exercise 2.22 and from the graph-inversion.
The graph of an approximable map, as a set of neighbourhood pairs.

The meet of a non-empty family of maps. #
The pointwise meet โ ๐ฎ of a family of approximable maps (drawn from
C): X (โ๐ฎ) Y iff
(X, Y) lies in every member of ๐ฎ.
Equations
Instances For
Exercise 2.22 hypothesis (i). C is closed under non-empty intersections.
The join of a directed family of maps. #
The join โ ๐ฎ of a directed family of approximable maps: X (โ๐ฎ) Y iff

Exercise 3.27. #
Exercise 3.27. The function space |๐โ โ ๐โ| is (order-)isomorphic to the
domain
produced by
the abstract representation theorem (Exercise 2.22) applied to the family C of
graphs of
approximable maps. This re-proves that approximable mappings form a domain without
appealing to the
explicit step-set neighbourhood system of Definition 3.8 โ composing Exercise
2.22's reprIso with
the graph isomorphism (graphEquiv) and Theorem 3.10 (funSpaceEquiv).
