Lawvere completion and separation via closure

Abstract

For a quantale $\V$, first a closure-theoretic approach to completeness and separation in $\V$-categories is presented. This approach is then generalized to $\Tth$-categories, where $\Tth$ is a topological theory that entails a set monad $\mT$ and a compatible $\mT$-algebra structure on $\V$.
