Abstract
We generalize the notions of β- and λ-maps in terms of selections of sublocales, obtaining different classes of localic maps. These new classes of maps are used to characterize almost normal, extremally disconnected, F- and Oz-locales, among other types of locales, in a manner akin to the characterization of normal locales via β-maps. As a byproduct we obtain a characterization of localic maps that preserve the completely below relation (that is, the right adjoints of assertive frame homomorphisms).
期刊介绍:
Topology and its Applications is primarily concerned with publishing original research papers of moderate length. However, a limited number of carefully selected survey or expository papers are also included. The mathematical focus of the journal is that suggested by the title: Research in Topology. It is felt that it is inadvisable to attempt a definitive description of topology as understood for this journal. Certainly the subject includes the algebraic, general, geometric, and set-theoretic facets of topology as well as areas of interactions between topology and other mathematical disciplines, e.g. topological algebra, topological dynamics, functional analysis, category theory. Since the roles of various aspects of topology continue to change, the non-specific delineation of topics serves to reflect the current state of research in topology.
At regular intervals, the journal publishes a section entitled Open Problems in Topology, edited by J. van Mill and G.M. Reed. This is a status report on the 1100 problems listed in the book of the same name published by North-Holland in 1990, edited by van Mill and Reed.
