description

The paper considers a new approach to fuzzy topology based on the concept of variety and developed in the framework of topological theories resembling those of Rodabaugh. As a result, a categorical generalization of the notion of topological system of Vickers is obtained, and its theory unfolded, which clarifies the relations between algebra and topology. We also justify the use of semi-quantales as the basic underlying structure for doing lattice-valued topology as well as provide a categorical framework incorporating the theory of bitopological spaces.
