Feb 5, 2016 at 9:25 comment added Eric Wofsey No, they aren't the same in general. For instance, let $I$ be any connected compact Hausdorff space, and let $\pi:S\to I$ be any continuous surjection from a Stone space to $I$. Taking the kernel pair of $\pi$ gives a pair of maps $\varphi^*,\psi^*:T\to S$ from some Stone space $T$ whose coequalizer is $\pi$. Thus the quotient by the equivalence relation $\sim'$ in this case is $I$. But the quotient by $\sim$ will be just a point, since $I$ is connected.
Feb 5, 2016 at 9:11 comment added Junekey Jeon Thank you very much. But unfortunately, I think I misunderstood myself about the real problem.. The question I should ask was the equivalence of $\sim$ and $\sim'$, instead of the original question I wrote. Do you have any idea about that? Again, thanks.
