Metric logical categories and conceptual completeness for first order continuous logic

Abstract

We begin the study of categorical logic for continuous model theory. In particular, we 1. introduce the notions of metric logical categories and functors as categorical equivalents of a metric theory and interpretations, 2. prove a continuous version of conceptual completeness showing that $T^\eq$ is the maximal conservative expansion of $T$, and 3. define the concept of a metric pre-topos.
