✦ Synopsis

The notion of elementary diameter is introduced to provide, in the context of Locale Theory, a constructive notion of metrisability. Besides foundational aspects, elementary diameters allow to express metrisability in locales more simply with respect to the existing (non-constructive) approach based on diameters. By relying on the presentation of Locale Theory provided by formal topology, the notions to be presented may be conceived as phrased within (Martin-L of) Type Theory. A type-theoretic version of Urysohn metrisation theorem is thus obtained. As an application, a set (data type) of indexes for the points of locally compact metrisable formal spaces is shown to exist.

Benedetti and Petronio developed in [1] a so called o-Graph Calculus, where a compact oriented 3-manifold with nonempty boundary could be described by a quadrivalent graph together with some extra structure. In this paper, we will show how topological constructions such as puncturing, connected sums

## Abstract This paper continues our study of computable point‐free topological spaces and the metamathematical points in them. For us, a __point__ is the intersection of a sequence of basic open sets with compact and nested closures. We call such a sequence a __sharp filter__. A function __f~F~__
