description | We construct a denotational model of linear logic, whose objects are all the
locally convex and separated topological vector spaces endowed with their weak
topology. The negation is interpreted as the dual, linear proofs are
interpreted as continuous linear functions, and non-linear proofs as sequences
of monomials. We do not complete our constructions by a double-orthogonality
operation. This yields an interpretation of the polarity of the connectives in
terms of topology. |
