Extract

The aim of this paper is to give two new descriptions of the ordered set of all (up to equivalence) regular compactifications of a completely regular frame. F and to introduce and study the notion of A-frame as a generalization of the notion of Alexandroff space (known also as zero-set space) (Alexandroff[l], Gordon[15]). A description of the ordered set of all (up to equivalence) A-compactifications of an A-frame by means of an ordered by inclusion set of some distributive lattices (called AP-sublattices) is obtained. It implies that any A-frame has a greatest A-compactification and leads to the descriptions of A new category isomorphic to the category of proximal frames is introduced. A question for compactifications of frames analogous to the R. Chandler's question [8, p. 71] for compactifications of spaces is formulated and solved. Many results of [1], [3], [15], [23], [9], [10] and [11] are generalized.
