The universal gas law states that (pressure * volume/temperature) of a gas is a constant. Hence, if the volume stays the same (as in a pressure cooker), the air in the cooker can increase in temperature beyond the boiling point of water as pressure builds up over the normal atmospheric pressure. A higher temperature means faster cooking. The above is a very simplistic view of the physics involved.
