Extending the Stone Duality Theorem, we prove two duality theorems for the category ZHaus of zero-dimensional Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps. They extend also the Tarski Duality Theorem; the latter is even derived from one of them. We prove as well two new duality theorems for the category EDTych of extremally disconnected Tychonoff spaces and continuous maps. Also, we describe two categories which are dually equivalent to the category ZComp of zero-dimensional Hausdorff compactifications of zero-dimensional Hausdorff spaces and obtain as a corollary the Dwinger Theorem about zero-dimensional compactifications of a zero-dimensional Hausdorff space.

In 1958 Gleason [6] proved the following :THEOREM. In the category of compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps, the projective elements are precisely the extremally disconnected spaces.The projective elements in many topological categories with perfect continuous functions as morphisms have been found since that time. For example: In the following categories the projective elements are precisely the extremally disconnected spaces:(i) The category of Tychonov spaces and perfect continuous functions. [4] [11].(ii) The category of regular spaces and perfect continuous functions. [4] [12].(iii) The category of Hausdorff spaces and perfect continuous functions. [10] [1].(iv) In the category of Hausdorff spaces and continuous k-maps the projective members are precisely the extremally disconnected k-spaces. [14].In 1963 Iliadis [7] constructed for every Hausdorff space X the so called Iliadis absolute E[X], which is a maximal pre-image of X under irreducible θ-continuous maps.

Gleason [3] proved that in the category G of compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps, the projective objects are precisely the extremally disconnected spaces contained in the category. Strauss [7] generalised this and proved that in the category G of regular Hausdorif spaces and perfect maps the projective objects are again precisely the extremally disconnected ones. Observe that Gleason's category is a full subcategory of Strauss's category.

As proved in [16], there exists a duality ?t between the category HLC of locally compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps, and the category DHLC of complete local contact algebras and appropriate morphisms between them. In this paper, we introduce the notions of weight wa and of dimension dima of a local contact algebra, and we prove that if X is a locally compact Hausdorff space then w(X) = wa(?t(X)), and if, in addition, X is normal, then dim(X) = dima(?t(X)).

Viglino defined a Hausdorff topological space to beC-compact if each closed subset of the space is anH-set in the sense of Veličko. In this paper, we study the class of Hausdorff spaces characterized by the property that each closed subset is anS-set in the sense of Dickman and Krystock. Such spaces are calledC-s-compact. Recently, the notion of strongly subclosed relation, introduced by Joseph, has been utilized to characterizeC-compact spaces as those with the property that each function from the space to a Hausdorff space with a strongly subclosed inverse is closed. Here, it is shown thatC-s-compact spaces are characterized by the property that each function from the space to a Hausdorff space with a strongly sub-semiclosed inverse is a closed function. It is established that this class of spaces is the same as the class of Hausdorff, compact, and extremally disconnected spaces. The class ofC-s-compact spaces is properly contained in the class ofC-compact spaces as well as in the class ofS-closed spaces of Thompson. In general, a compact space need not beC-s-compact. The product of twoC-s-compact spaces need not beC-s-compact.

The main object of this paper is to give an explicit object in the study of projective covers in the category of compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps studied in [2] and [5]. be a projective cover of the Stone-Čech compactification βX of a completely regular Hausdorff space X. Here, it will be shown that the maximal ideal space endowed with the Stone topology of the maximal ring of quotients of the ring C(X) of all real valued continuous functions on X is homeomorphic to K.

It is well known (see [3](1)) that no continuum (i.e. compact, connected, Hausdorff space) can be written as a countable disjoint union of its (nonvoid) closed subsets. This result can be generalized in two ways into the setting of locally compact, connected, Hausdorff spaces. Using the one point compactification of a locally compact, connected, Hausdorff space X one can easily show that X cannot be written as a countable disjoint union of compact subsets. If one makes the further assumption that X is locally connected, then one can show that X cannot be written as a countable disjoint union of closed subsets.(2)

AbstractWe propose an analogue of the Banach contraction principle for connected compact Hausdorff spaces. We define a J-contraction of a connected compact Hausdorff space. We show that every contraction of a compact metric space is a J-contraction and that any J-contraction of a compact metrizable space is a contraction for some admissible metric. We show that every J-contraction has a unique fixed point and that the orbit of each point converges to this fixed point.

The fact that simple links in locally compact connected metric spaces are nondegenerate was probably first established by C. Kuratowski and G. T. Whyburn in [2], where it is proved for Peano continua. J. L. Kelley in [3] established it for arbitrary metric continua, and A. D. Wallace extended the theorem to Hausdorff continua in [4]. In [1], B. Lehman proved this theorem for locally compact, locally connected Hausdorff spaces. We will show that the locally connected property is not necessary.A continuum is a compact connected Hausdorff space. For any two points a and b of a connected space M, E(a, b) denotes the set of all points of M which separate a from b in M. The interval ab of M is the set E(a, b) ∪ {a, b}.

Banaschewski (1963) and Frink (1964) generalized the compactification procedure of Wallman to obtain Hausdorff compactifications of Tychonoff spaces. Numerous papers have been devoted to the problem whether all Hausdorff compactifications may be obtained in this way, and for many classes of compactifications an affirmative answer has been given. This note is a contribution in this direction. We show that if a (Hausdorff) compactification αX of X is the quotient space of a Wallman compactification γX in such a way that the set of multiple points of αX with respect to γX is not too large, then αX too is a Wallman compactification. The results are generalizations of earlier results of Steiner and Steiner (1968) and by the author (1966) for the special case that γX is the Stone Čech-compactification.

Magill's and Rayburn's theorems on the homeomorphism of Stone-Čech remainders and some of their generalizations to the remainders of arbitrary Hausdorff compactifications of Tychonoff spaces are extended to some class of mappings.
