Abstract

In the paper we describe the structure of AH\mathscr{AH}-completions and H\mathscr{H}-completions of the discrete semilattices (N,min)(\mathbb{N},\min) and (N,max)(\mathbb{N},\max). We give an example of an H\mathscr{H}-complete topological semilattice which is not AH\mathscr{AH}-complete. Also we construct an H\mathscr{H}-complete topological semilattice of cardinality λ\lambda which has 2λ2^\lambda many open-and-closed continuous homomorphic images which are not H\mathscr{H}-complete topological semilattices. The constructed examples give a negative answer to Question 17 from the paper J. W. Stepp, {\it Algebraic maximal semilattices}. Pacific J. Math. {\bf 58}:1 (1975), 243-248.
