A four for the price of one duality principle for distributive spaces

General Topology 2011-02-15 v1 Category Theory

Abstract

In this paper we consider topological spaces as generalised orders and characterise those spaces which satisfy a (suitably defined) topological distributive law. Furthermore, we show that the category of these spaces is dually equivalent to a certain category of frames by simply observing that both sides represent the idempotents split completion of the same category.
