Reference request: lower sets of a preorder form a lattice
Consider a set $S$ with a preorder $\preceq$ (a preorder is a reflexive and transitive relation). A lower set $A$ of $S$ is defined as a subset of $S$ such that for all $x \in S$ and $y \in A$, if $...

Duality for continuous lattices based on [0, 1]
A continuous lattice may be defined as a complete lattice in which arbitrary meets distribute over directed joins. A continuous lattice is naturally regarded as an algebraic structure where the ...
