In this paper we expand and relate the work of Mansfield and others on the semantics of boolean valued models, and of Munro and others on the adjunctions between $\\mathsf{B}$-valued models and $\\mathsf{B}^+$-presheaves for a boolean algebra $\\mathsf{B}$. In particular we give an exact topological characterization (the so called \\emph{fullness property}) of which boolean valued models satisfy \\L o\\'s theorem (i.e. the general form of the forcing theorem which Cohen -- Scott, Solovay, Vopenka -- established for the special case given by the forcing method in set theory). We also give an exact categorial characterization of which presheaves correspond to \\emph{full} boolean valued models in terms of the structure of global sections of their associated \\'etal\\'e space. To do so we introduce a slight variant of the sheafification process of a given presheaf by means of its embedding into an \\'etal\\'e space.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-06-26T08:19:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03E40", "18A40", "18F20", "03C90", "03C20" ], "keywords": [ "boolean algebra", "etale space", "boolean truth values", "intermediate truth value", "boolean valued models satisfy" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
