Abstract

A complete lattice, L, is constructively completely distributive, (CCD) (L), if the sup map defined on down-closed subobjects has a left adjoint. It was known that in Boolean toposes (CCD) (L) is equivalent to (CCD) (Lop). We show here that the latter property for all L (sufficiently, for Ω.) characterizes Boolean toposes.
