Minimal Hausdorff topologies compatible with a bunch of functions

Let $X$ be an infinite set, let ${\cal F}$ be a set of functions $f: X\to X$. We say that a topology $\tau$ is compatible with ${\cal F}$ if every $f\in {\cal F}$ is a continuous function $f:(X, \tau)\...

Maximal elements in the partially ordered set of image spaces

If $(X,\tau)$ is a topological space, let $\text{Im}(X)$ denote the collection of subsets $S$ of $X$ such that there is a continuous function $f:X\to X$ with $\text{im}(f) = S$. Is there a space $(X,\...

Order convergence vs topological convergence in partially ordered sets

Short version of the question. If $(P,\leq)$ is a partially ordered set (poset), a topology denoted by $\tau_o(P)$ can be defined (see below). There is also another notion of convergence, called order-...

(When) is the Dedekind-MacNeille completion of a po-set Hausdorff?

Let $X$ be a p.o. Consider the topology on $X$ generated by $$U_{x}^{-}:=X\setminus (x\uparrow),\quad U_{x}^{+}:=X\setminus (x\downarrow), \quad x\in X$$ Throughout this discussion I shall refer to ...

Image of poset with Hausdorff interval topology

Given a poset $(P,\leq)$ the interval topology $\tau_{\text{int}}(P)$ on $P$ is generated by $$\{P\setminus\downarrow x : x\in P\} \cup \{P\setminus\uparrow x : x\in P\},$$ where $\downarrow x = \{y\...

Non-homeomorphic connected $T_2$-spaces with isomorphic topology poset

What are examples of non-homeomorphic connected $T_2$-spaces $(X_i,\tau_i)$ for $i=1,2$ such that the posets $(\tau_1, \subseteq)$ and $(\tau_2,\subseteq)$ are order-isomorphic?

Product of posets with Hausdorff interval topology

Given a poset $(P,\leq)$ the interval topology on $P$ is generated by $$\{P\setminus\downarrow x : x\in P\} \cup \{P\setminus\uparrow x : x\in P\},$$ where $\downarrow x = \{y\in P: y\leq x\}$ and $\...

Hausdorff interval topology on distributive lattices

Given a poset $(P,\leq)$ the interval topology $\tau_i(P)$ on $P$ is generated by $$\{P\setminus\downarrow x : x\in P\} \cup \{P\setminus\uparrow x : x\in P\},$$ where $\downarrow x = \{y\in P: y\leq ...

Adjoints of the interval topology functor

Given a poset $(P,\leq)$ the interval topology $\tau_i(P)$ on $P$ is generated by $$\{P\setminus{\downarrow x} : x\in P\} \cup \{P\setminus{\uparrow x} : x\in P\},$$ where $\downarrow x = \{y\in P: y\...
