Spectral spaces and ultrafilters

Abstract

Let XX be the prime spectrum of a ring. In [arXiv:0707.1525] the authors define a topology on XX by using ultrafilters and they show that this topology is precisely the constructible topology. In this paper we generalize the construction given in [arXiv:0707.1525] and, starting from a set XX and a collection of subsets F\mathcal{F} of XX, we define by using ultrafilters a topology on XX in which F\mathcal F is a collection of clopen sets. We use this construction for giving a new characterization of spectral spaces and several new examples of spectral spaces.
