Abstract

In this paper, for a full subcategory K\mathbf{K} of the category of all T0T_0 spaces with continuous mappings, we investigate the questions under what conditions the K\mathbf{K}-reflection of a Scott space is still a Scott space and under what conditions the Scott K\mathbf{K}-completion of a poset exists. Some necessary and sufficient conditions for the K\mathbf{K}-reflection of a Scott space to be a Scott space and for the existence of Scott K\mathbf{K}-completion of a poset are established, respectively. It is shown that neither the sobrification nor the well-filtered reflection of the Johnstone space is a Scott space. The K\mathbf{K}-reflections of Alexandroff spaces and the K\mathbf{K}-completions of posets are also discussed.
