In this paper, we first correct a recent misconception about a topology that was suggested by Zeeman as a possible alternative to his fine topology. This misconception appeared while trying to establish the causality in the ambient boundary-ambient space cosmological model. We then show that this topology is actually the intersection topology (in the sense of Reed [The intersection topology w.r.t. the real line and the countable ordinals, Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 297(2) (1986) 509-520]) between the Euclidean topology on and the order topology whose order, namely horismos, is defined on the light cone and we show that the order topology from horismos belongs to the class of Zeeman topologies. These results accelerate the need for a deeper and more systematic study of the global topological properties of spacetime manifolds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this note, we support that the five-dimensional "ambient cosmology" does not appear to be necessary, neither is required for the scope of avoiding spacetime singularities. This scope can be reached with other, purely topological instruments, without postulating extra dimensions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Chu spaces, which derive from the Chu construct of *-autonomous categories, can be used to represent most mathematical structures. Moreover, the logic of Chu spaces is linear logic. Most efforts to incorporate fuzzy set theory into the realm of linear logic are based on the assumption that fuzzy and linear negation are identical operations. We propose an incorporation based on the opposite assumption and we provide an interpretation of some linear connectives. Furthermore, we show that it is possible to represent any fuzzy relational structure as a Chu space by means of the functor G. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
