Preorders, residuation and closure spaces. (Préordres, résiduation et espaces de fermeture.) (French) Zbl 0802.06004

Summary: We construct an adjunction between the category \(\mathbb{P}\) of isotone functions between preordered sets and the category \(\mathbb{F}\) of closure spaces. We also give an adjunction between \(\mathbb{F}\) and the category \(\mathbb{L}\) of residuated functions between complete lattices. It follows that \(\mathbb{P}\) and \(\mathbb{L}\) are isomorphic to two disjoint full subcategories of \(\mathbb{F}\) whose objects we characterize.
