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)ᶜform a basis for the relative lower topology onT.PrimitiveSpectrum.isOpen_iff- for a complete lattice, the sets(hull a)ᶜare the relative topology.PrimitiveSpectrum.gc- thekerneland thehullform a Galois connectionPrimitiveSpectrum.gi- whenTgeneratesα, 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 of type α the set of element of T which dominate a is the hull of a in T.
Equations
Instances For
For a subset S of T, kernel S is the infimum of S (considered as a set of α)
Equations
Instances For
T order generates α if, for every a in α, there exists a subset of T such that a is
the kernel of S.
