Sober approach spaces are firmly reflective for the class of epimorphic embeddings. (English) Zbl 1120.54009

From the abstract: The main result of this paper states that the subconstruct of sober approach spaces, introduced by B. Banaschewski, R. Lowen and C. Van Olmen [Topology Appl. 153, 3059–3070 (2006; Zbl 1114.54007)], is firmly \(\mathcal U\)-reflective in the construct of \(T_0\) approach spaces for the class \(\mathcal U\) of epimorphic embeddings. This result generalizes the fact that the subconstruct of sober topological spaces is firmly reflective for the class of b-dense embeddings in the construct of \(T_0\) spaces.
