Popis: When replacing the non-negative real numbers with their addition by a commutative quantale $$\mathsf{V}$$ , under a metric lens one may then view small $$\mathsf{V}$$ -categories as sets that come with a $$\mathsf{V}$$ -valued distance function. The ensuing category $$\mathsf{V}\text {-}\mathbf{Cat}$$ is well known to be a concrete topological category that is symmetric monoidal closed. In this paper we show which concrete symmetric monoidal-closed topological categories may be fully and bireflectively embedded into $$\mathsf{V}\text {-}\mathbf{Cat}$$ , for some $$\mathsf{V}$$ .
