Abstract: In this paper, we provide a direct approach to mathbfK-reflections of T0 spaces. For a full subcategory mathbfK of the category of all T0 spaces and a T0 space X, let is closed and for any continuous mapping f:XlongrightarrowY to a mathbfK-space Y, there exists a unique yAinY such that and PH(mathbfK(X)) the space of mathbfK(X) endowed with the lower Vietoris topology. It is proved that if PH(mathbfK(X)) is a mathbfK-space, then the pair langleXk=PH(mathbfK(X)),etaXangle, where etaX:XlongrightarrowXk, xmapstooverlinex, is the mathbfK-reflection of X. We call mathbfK an adequate category if for any T0 space X, PH(mathbfK(X)) is a mathbfK-space. Therefore, if mathbfK is adequate, then mathbfK is reflective in mathbfTop0. It is shown that the category of all sober spaces, that of all d-spaces, that of all well-filtered spaces and the Keimel and Lawson's category are all adequate, and hence are all reflective in mathbfTop0. Some major properties of mathbfK-spaces and mathbfK-reflections of T0 spaces are investigated. In particular, it is proved that if mathbfK is adequate, then the mathbfK-reflection preserves finite products of T0 spaces. Our study also leads to a number of problems, whose answering will deepen our understanding of the related spaces and their categorical structures.
