Two such relationships are embeddings from TopSys into Loc-Top, both having two-fold significance: for computer science the significance is that TopSys is not topological over Set $\times $ Loc, yet Loc-Top is topological over Set $\times $ Loc; hence these embeddings can be used to construct in Loc-Top the unique initial [final] lifts of all forgetful functor structured sources [sinks] in TopSys; and for topology, the significance is that both embeddings generate anti-stratified topological spaces from ordinary topological spaces and spatial locales rewritten as topological systems, thus justifying the current structural axioms of Loc-Top and lattice-valued topology (which include all anti-stratified, non-stratified, and stratified spaces).” rv: Tomasz Kubiak (Poznań)
