Abstract

We study continuous lattices with maps that preserve all suprema rather than only directed ones. We introduce the (full) subcategory of FS-lattices, which turns out to be *-autonomous, and in fact maximal with this property. FS-lattices are studied in the presence of distributivity and algebraicity. The theory is extremely rich with numerous connections to classical Domain Theory, complete distributivity, Topology and models of Linear Logic.
