Abstract: Halmos duality generalizes Stone duality to the category of Stone spaces and continuous relations. This further generalizes to an equivalence (as well as to a dual equivalence) between the category mathsfStonemathsfR of Stone spaces and closed relations and the category mathsfBAmathsfS of boolean algebras and subordination relations. We apply the Karoubi envelope construction to this equivalence to obtain that the category mathsfKHausmathsfR of compact Hausdorff spaces and closed relations is equivalent to the category mathsfDeVS of de Vries algebras and compatible subordination relations. This resolves a problem recently raised in the literature. We prove that the equivalence between mathsfKHausmathsfR and mathsfDeVS further restricts to an equivalence between the category mathsfKHaus of compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous functions and the wide subcategory mathsfDeVF of mathsfDeVS whose morphisms satisfy additional conditions. This yields an alternative to de Vries duality. One advantage of our approach is that composition of morphisms is usual relation composition.
