In mathematics, a spectral space is a topological space that is homeomorphic to the spectrum of a commutative ring. It is sometimes also called a coherent space because of the connection to coherent topos.
Let X be a topological space and let K(X) be the set of all
compact open subsets of X. Then X is said to be spectral if it satisfies all of the following conditions:
X is compact and T0.
K(X) is a basis of open subsets of X.
K(X) is closed under finite intersections.
X is sober, i.e., every nonempty irreducible closed subset of X has a (necessarily unique) generic point.
Let X be a topological space. Each of the following properties are equivalent
to the property of X being spectral:
X is homeomorphic to a projective limit of finite T0-spaces.
X is homeomorphic to the spectrum of a bounded distributive lattice L. In this case, L is isomorphic (as a bounded lattice) to the lattice K(X) (this is called Stone representation of distributive lattices).
X is homeomorphic to the spectrum of a commutative ring.
X is the topological space determined by a Priestley space.
X is a T0 space whose frame of open sets is coherent (and every coherent frame comes from a unique spectral space in this way).
Let X be a spectral space and let K(X) be as before. Then:
K(X) is a bounded sublattice of subsets of X.
Every closed subspace of X is spectral.
An arbitrary intersection of compact and open subsets of X (hence of elements from K(X)) is again spectral.
X is T0 by definition, but in general not T1. In fact a spectral space is T1 if and only if it is Hausdorff (or T2) if and only if it is a boolean space if and only if K(X) is a boolean algebra.
X can be seen as a pairwise Stone space.
A spectral map f: X → Y between spectral spaces X and Y is a continuous map such that the of every open and compact subset of Y under f is again compact.
The category of spectral spaces, which has spectral maps as morphisms, is dually equivalent to the category of bounded distributive lattices (together with morphisms of such lattices).

In mathematics, a sober space is a topological space X such that every (nonempty) irreducible closed subset of X is the closure of exactly one point of X: that is, every irreducible closed subset has a unique generic point. Sober spaces have a variety of cryptomorphic definitions, which are documented in this section. All except the definition in terms of nets are described in. In each case below, replacing "unique" with "at most one" gives an equivalent formulation of the T0 axiom.
In mathematics, there is an ample supply of categorical dualities between certain of topological spaces and categories of partially ordered sets. Today, these dualities are usually collected under the label Stone duality, since they form a natural generalization of Stone's representation theorem for Boolean algebras. These concepts are named in honor of Marshall Stone. Stone-type dualities also provide the foundation for pointless topology and are exploited in theoretical computer science for the study of formal semantics.
