Abstract: We prove a new duality theorem for the category of precontact algebras which implies the Stone Duality Theorem, its connected version obtained in arXiv:1508.02220v3, 1-44 (to appear in Topology Appl.), the recent duality theorems of Bezhanishvili, G., Bezhanishvili, N., Sourabh, S., Venema, Y. and Goldblatt, R. and Grice, M, and some new duality theorems for the category of contact algebras and for the category of complete contact algebras.

Review text

In this paper the authors deal with a generalization of the Stone Duality Theorem for Boolean algebras. Denoting by \(\mathbf{MCS}\) the category whose objects are all mereocompact \(T_0\)-spaces and whose morphisms are all continuous maps between mereocompact \(T_0\)-spaces preserving the corresponding u-points, then the authors show a duality theorem for contact Algebras \(\mathbf{CA}\): ``The categories \(\mathbf{CA}\) and \(\mathbf{MCS}\) are dually equivalent. Let \(\mathbf{PCA}\) be the category of all precontact algebras (and suitable morphisms between them) and \(\mathbf{PCS}\) be the category of all 2-precontact spaces (and suitable morphisms between them). The authors show, also, that the full subcategory \(\mathbf{PCAC}\) of the category \(\mathbf{PCA}\) whose objects are all connected precontact algebras is dually equivalent to the full subcategory \(\mathbf{PCSC}\) of the category \(\mathbf{PCS}\) with objects all connected 2-precontact spaces.
