SI2SI_2-quasicontinuous spaces

In this paper, as a common generalization of $SI_{2}$-continuous spaces and $s_{2}$-quasicontinuous posets, we introduce the concepts of $SI_{2}$-quasicontinuous spaces and $\mathcal{GD}$-convergence of nets for arbitrary topological spaces by the cuts. Some characterizations of $SI_{2}$-quasicontinuity of spaces are given. The main results are: (1) a space is $SI_{2}$-quasicontinuous if and only if its weakly irreducible topology is hypercontinuous under inclusion order; (2) A $T_{0}$ space $X$ is $SI_{2}$-quasicontinuous if and only if the $\mathcal{GD}$-convergence in $X$ is topological

Countably QC

As a generalization of countably C-approximating posets, the concept of countably QC-approximating posets is introduced. With the countably QC-approximating property, some characterizations of generalized completely distributive lattices and generalized countably approximating posets are given. The main results are as follows: (1) a complete lattice is generalized completely distributive if and only if it is countably QC-approximating and weakly generalized countably approximating; (2) a poset L having countably directed joins is generalized countably approximating if and only if the lattice σcLop of all σ-Scott-closed subsets of L is weakly generalized countably approximating

Quasiexact posets and the moderate meet-continuity

The study of weak domains and quasicontinuous domains leads to the consideration of two types generalizations of domains. In the current paper, we define the weak way-below relation between two nonempty subsets of a poset and quasiexact posets. We prove some connections among quasiexact posets, quasicontinuous domains and weak domains. Furthermore, we introduce the weak way-below finitely determined topology and study its links to Scott topology and the weak way-below topology first considered by Mushburn. It is also proved that a dcpo is a domain if it is quasiexact and moderately meet continuous with the weak way-below relation weakly increasing

D-completions and the d-topology

In this article we give a general categorical construction via reflection functors for various completions of T0-spaces subordinate to sobrification, with a particular emphasis on what we call the D-completion, a type of directed completion introduced by Wyler [O. Wyler, Dedekind complete posets and Scott topologies, in: B. Banaschewski, R.-E. Hoffmann (Eds.), Continuous Lattices Proceedings, Bremen 1979, in: Lecture Notes in Mathematics, vol. 871, Springer Verlag, 1981, pp. 384-389]. A key result is that all completions of a certain type are universal, hence unique (up to homeomorphism). We give a direct definition of the D-completion and develop its theory by introducing a variant of the Scott topology, which we call the d-topology. For partially ordered sets the D-completion turns out to be a natural dcpo-completion that generalizes the rounded ideal completion. In the latter part of the paper we consider settings in which the D-completion agrees with the sobrification respectively the closed ideal completion. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
