Boolean-valued probabilistic metric spaces

Abstract

dc:description

In this paper the Boolean valued method is used to develop a theory closely resembling the theory of probabilistic metric spaces. In this development the complete Boolean algebra used must have the form of the quotient algebra of some atomless probability space ($\Omega,{\cal A},P$) modulo its class of null sets. In this setting the real numbers in the Boolean valued model, $V\sp{\cal B}$, correspond to random variables with domain $\Omega$, and the sets which act as binary operations on $\Re$ in the model correspond to binary operations on the class of random variables with domain $\Omega$.
