Such systems include:

*[[Abstract Stone duality]]<ref>[http://www.PaulTaylor.EU/ASD Paul Taylor's site]</ref>, a programme to re-axiomatise [[general topology]] ''directly'', instead of using [[set theory]]. It is formulated in the style of [[type theory]] and is in principle computable. It is currently able to characterise the [[category (mathematics)|category]] of (not necessarily Hausdorff) computably based locally compact spaces. It allows the development of a form of constructive real analysis using topological rather than [[Cauchy sequence|metrical]] arguments.

*[[Chainlet geometry]], a recent development of geometric integration theory which incorporates [[infinitesimals]] and allows the resulting calculus to be applied to continuous domains without local Euclidean structure as well as discrete domains.

*[[Constructivist analysis]], which is built upon a foundation of [[constructivist logic|constructivist]], rather than classical, logic and set theory.
