Strongly Finitary Monads for Varieties of Quantitative Algebras

Abstract

Quantitative algebras are algebras enriched in the category Met of metric spaces or UMet of ultrametric spaces so that all operations are nonexpanding. Mardare, Plotkin and Panangaden introduced varieties (aka 1-basic varieties) as classes of quantitative algebras presented by quantitative equations. We prove that, when restricted to ultrametrics, varieties bijectively correspond to strongly finitary monads T on UMet. This means that T is the left Kan extension of its restriction to finite discrete spaces. An analogous result holds in the category CUMet of complete ultrametric spaces.
