Abstract

For a poset PP, let σ(P)\sigma(P) and Γ(P)\Gamma(P) respectively denote the lattice of its Scott open subsets and Scott closed subsets ordered by inclusion, and set ΣP=(P,σ(P))\Sigma P=(P,\sigma(P)). In this paper, we discuss the lower Vietoris topology and the Scott topology on Γ(P)\Gamma(P) and give some sufficient conditions to make the two topologies equal. We built an adjunction between σ(P)\sigma(P) and σ(Γ(P))\sigma(\Gamma(P)) and proved that ΣP\Sigma P is core-compact iff ΣΓ(P)\Sigma\Gamma(P) is core-compact iff ΣΓ(P)\Sigma\Gamma(P) is sober, locally compact and σ(Γ(P))=υ(Γ(P))\sigma(\Gamma(P))=\upsilon(\Gamma(P)) (the lower Vietoris topology). This answers a question in [17]. Brecht and Kawai [2] asked whether the consonance of a topological space XX implies the consonance of its lower powerspace, we give a partial answer to this question at the last part of this paper.
