Abstract
We determine sufficient structure for an elementary topos to emulate Nelson's Internal Set Theory in its internal language, and show that any topos satisfying the internal axiom of choice occurs as a universe of standard objects and maps. This development allows one to employ the proof methods of nonstandard analysis (transfer, standardisation, and idealisation) in new environments such as toposes of G-sets and Boolean étendues.
期刊介绍:
The journal Annals of Pure and Applied Logic publishes high quality papers in all areas of mathematical logic as well as applications of logic in mathematics, in theoretical computer science and in other related disciplines. All submissions to the journal should be mathematically correct, well written (preferably in English)and contain relevant new results that are of significant interest to a substantial number of logicians. The journal also considers submissions that are somewhat too long to be published by other journals while being too short to form a separate memoir provided that they are of particular outstanding quality and broad interest. In addition, Annals of Pure and Applied Logic occasionally publishes special issues of selected papers from well-chosen conferences in pure and applied logic.
