The real numbers in Pointfree Topology
Starting from the frame of reals, defined by generators and relations and the corresponding pointfree notion of real-valued continuous function, these talks deal with some of the major concepts and results classically connected with the reals, such as: the cozero part of a frame, the Stone-Weierstrass Theorem, pseudocompactness, and realcompactness.
