Real dicompactifications of ditopological texture spaces

AbstractReal dicompactifications and dicompactifications of a ditopological texture space are defined and studied.Section 2 considers nearly plain extensions of a ditopological texture space (S,S,τ,κ). Spaces that possess a nearly plain extension are shown to have a property, called here almost plainness, that is weaker than that of near plainness, but which shares with near plainness the existence of an associated plain space (Sp,Sp,τp,κp). Some properties of the class of almost plain ditopological texture spaces are established, a notion of canonical nearly plain extension of an almost plain ditopological texture space, projective and injective pre-orderings and the concept of isomorphism on such canonical nearly plain extensions are defined.In Section 3 the notion of nearly plain extension is specialized to that of real dicompactification and dicompactification, and the spaces that have such extensions are characterized. Working in terms of a specific representation of the canonical real dicompactifications and dicompactifications of a completely biregular bi-T2 almost plain ditopological space, the interrelation between sub-T-lattices of the T-lattice of ω-preserving bicontinuous real mappings on the associated plain space and the real dicompactifications and dicompactifications are investigated. In particular generalizations of the Hewitt realcompactification and Stone–Čech compactification are obtained, and shown to be reflectors for the appropriate categories
