Recognition Fibers
Definition
A recognition fiber at trace is a finite Heyting algebra representing the recognitions available at that trace. A fibered recognition system assigns a fiber to each trace and provides reindexing maps along morphisms in .
Plain-language meaning
Each trace has its own local logic: a set of recognitions with logical operations like “and”, “or”, and “implies”. When you move between traces, recognitions must transport in a consistent way.
Minimal structure
- For each trace , a finite Heyting algebra .
- For each morphism , a reindexing map .
- Reindexing respects the Heyting operations.
Entry conditions
Use recognition fibers only when:
- Each trace has a well-defined local logic.
- You can list recognitions and their order structure.
- You can define how recognitions move along trace morphisms.
Example
Let each be the three-element chain . For a morphism , define as the identity map. This yields a consistent fibered system.
