Hull-Kernel Topology #
Let α
be a CompleteLattice
and let T
be a subset of α
. The pair of maps
S → sInf (Subtype.val '' S)
and a → T ↓∩ Ici a
are often referred to as the kernel
and the
hull
respectively. They form an antitone Galois connection between the subsets of T
and α
.
When α
can be generated from T
by taking infs, this becomes a Galois insertion and the relative
topology (Topology.lower
) on T
takes on a particularly simple form: the relative-open sets are
exactly the sets of the form (hull T a)ᶜ
for some a
in α
. The topological closure coincides
with the closure arising from the Galois insertion. For this reason the relative lower topology on
T
is often referred to as the "hull-kernel topology". The names "Jacobson topology" and "structure
topology" also occur in the literature.
Main statements #
PrimitiveSpectrum.isTopologicalBasis_relativeLower
- the sets(hull a)ᶜ
form a basis for the relative lower topology onT
.PrimitiveSpectrum.isOpen_iff
- for a complete lattice, the sets(hull a)ᶜ
are the relative topology.PrimitiveSpectrum.gc
- thekernel
and thehull
form a Galois connectionPrimitiveSpectrum.gi
- whenT
generatesα
, the Galois connection becomes an insertion.
Implementation notes #
The antitone Galois connection from Set T
to α
is implemented as a monotone Galois connection
between Set T
to αᵒᵈ
.
Motivation #
The motivating example for the study of a set T
of prime elements which generate α
is the
primitive spectrum of the lattice of M-ideals of a Banach space.

For a

the set of element of T
which dominate a
is the hull
of a
