Throughout this paper, A will denote a distributive lattice with 0 and 1; we shall write spec A for the prime spectrum of A (i.e. the set of prime ideals of A, with the Stone–Zariski topology), and max A, min A for the subspaces of spec A consisting of maximal and minimal prime ideals respectively. These two subspaces have rather different topological properties: max A is always compact, but not always Hausdorff (indeed, any compact T1-space can occur as max A for some A), and min A is always Hausdorff (in fact zero-dimensional), but not always compact. (For more information on max A and min A, see Simmons[3].)

We call a topological space X minspectral if it is homeomorphic to the space of minimal prime ideals of a commutative ring A in the usual (hull-kernel or Zariski) topology (see [2, p. 111]). Note that if A has an identity, is a subspace of Spec A (as defined in [1, p. 124]). It is well known that a minspectral space is Hausdorff and has a clopen basis (and hence is completely regular). We give here a topological characterization of the minspectral spaces, and we show that all minspectral spaces can actually be obtained from rings with identity and that open (but not closed) subspaces of minspectral spaces are minspectral (Theorem 1, Proposition 5).

Abstract In this paper, we show there are strong relations between the algebraic properties of a graded commutative ring R and topological properties of open subsets of Zariski topology on the graded prime spectrum of R. We examine some algebraic conditions for open subsets of Zariski topology to become quasi-compact, dense, and irreducible. We also present a characterization for the radical of a graded ideal in R by using topological properties.

This paper studies algebraic frames L and the set Min (L) of minimal prime elements of L. We will endow the set Min (L) with two well-known topologies, known as the Hull-kernel (or Zariski) topology and the inverse topology, and discuss several properties of these two spaces. It will be shown that Min (L) endowed with the Hull-kernel topology is a zero-dimensional, Hausdorff space; whereas, Min (L) endowed with the inverse topology is a T1, compact space. The main goal will be to find conditions on L for the spaces Min (L) and Min (L)-1 to have various topological properties; for example, compact, locally compact, Hausdorff, zero-dimensional, and extremally disconnected. We will also discuss when the two topological spaces are Boolean and Stone spaces.

AbstractThe concept of coloring is studied for graphs derived from lattices with 0. It is shown that, if such a graph is derived from an atomic or distributive lattice, then the chromatic number equals the clique number. If this number is finite, then in the case of a distributive lattice, it is determined by the number of minimal prime ideals in the lattice. An estimate for the number of edges in such a graph of a finite lattice is given.

A congruence relation [Formula: see text] on an ADL [Formula: see text] is defined such that the quotient lattice [Formula: see text] is a distributive lattice and the prime spectrum of [Formula: see text] and of [Formula: see text] are homeomorphic. Also it is proved that the minimal prime spectrum of [Formula: see text] is homeomorphic with the minimal prime spectrum of [Formula: see text].

The concepts of annulets and α-ideals are introduced in C-algebras. α-ideals are characterized in terms of annulets and minimal prime ideals. A set of equivalent conditions is established for every ideal of a C-algebra to become an α-ideal. Some topological properties of the class of all prime α-ideals are studied in a C-algebra.

Throughout this paper the term ring will denote a commutative ring with unity and the term integral domain will denote a ring having no nonzero divisors of zero. The set of all prime ideals of a ring R can be viewed as a topological space, called the prime spectrum of R, and abbreviated Spec (R), where the topology used is the Zariski topology [1, Definition 4, § 4.3, p. 99]. The set of all prime ideals of R can also be viewed simply as aposet - that is, a partially ordered set - with respect to set inclusion. We will use the phrase the pospec of R, or just Pospec (/v), to refer to this partially ordered set.

This paper, the second of a sequence beginning with [14], deals with the relationship between a distributive lattice L = (L; ∨, ∧, 0) with zero, and certain spaces of minimal prime ideals of L. Similar studies of minimal prime ideals in commutative semigroups [8] and in commutative rings [6] inspired this work, and many of our results are similar to ones in these two articles. However the nature of our situation enables many of these results to be pushed deeper and thus to arrive at a more satisfactory state; indeed with the insight obtained from the simpler lattice situation, one can return to some topics considered in [6], [8] and give complete accounts. We do not do this in the present paper, but leave the details to the reader, see e.g. [15]. Also a study of minimal prime ideals illuminates some topics in the theory of distributive lattices, particularly Stone lattices.

We recall that the ideal I in an Archimedean Riesz space L is called a d-ideal whenever it follows from ƒ ∊ I that {ƒ}dd ⊂ I. Several authors (see [4], [5], [6], [12], [13], [15] and [18]) have considered the class of all d-ideals in L, but the set ℐd of all maximal d-ideals in L has not been studied in detail in the literature. In [12] and [13] the present authors paid some attention to certain aspects of the theory of maximal d-ideals, however neglecting the fact thatℐd, equipped with its hull-kernel topology, is a structure space of the underlying Riesz space L.The main purpose of the present paper is to investigate the topological properties of ℐd and to compare ℐd to other structure spaces of L, such as the space of minimal prime ideals and the space of all e-maximal ideals in L (where e > 0 is a weak order unit).

Let L be a lattice, and let n be a positive integer. In this article, we introduce n-absorbing ideals in L. We give some properties of such ideals. We show that every n-absorbing ideal I of L has at most n minimal prime ideals. Also, we give some properties of 2-absorbing and weakly 2-absorbing ideals in L. In particular we show that in every non-zero distributive lattice L, 2-absorbing and weakly 2-absorbing ideals are equivalent.
