More on locales in which every open sublocale is \(z\)-embedded (Q5963960)

Locales in which every open sublocale is \(z\)-embedded are called \textit{Oz-locales}. They were introduced by \textit{B. Banaschewski} and \textit{C. Gilmour} [``Oz revisited'', in: H. Herrlich (ed.) and H.-E. Porst (ed.), Proceedings of the conference on categorical methods in algebra and topology. Bremen: Universität Bremen. 19--23 (2000)] and generalise Blair's Oz-spaces in a conservative way. They are characterized internally as, e.g. the locales in which every regular element is a cozero element. The goal of this paper is to present new characterisations of Oz-locales and weak Oz-locales, including ring-theoretic ones which are new even for spaces. Then, the locales (among almost normal, mildly normal or weak \(\delta\)-normal locales) whose Stone-Čech compactification is an Oz-locale are characterised.
