Some minimum topological spaces, and vector lattices
Abstract
We investigate the existence of compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ that are minimum with respect to $cX=K$ for some fixed covering operator $c$ and compact Hausdorff space $K$ with $cK=K$. Then, using the Yosida representation theorem, we show how that situation relates to the existence of Archimedean vector lattices $A$ with distinguished strong unit that are minimum with respect to $hA=H$ for some fixed hull operator $h$ and vector lattice $H$ with $hH=H$. Among others, we obtain answers for $c=g$ (the Gleason covering operator), $c=qF$ (the quasi-$F$ covering operator), $h = u$ (the uniform completion operator), and $h=e$ (the essential completion operator).
