Abstract: Let $sR$ be an epireflective category of $opo$ and let $F_{s}R$, be the epireflective functor associated with $sR$. If $sA$ denotes a (semi)topological algebraic subcategory of $opo$, we study when $F_{s}R,(A)$ is an epireflective subcategory of $sA$. We prove that this is always the case for semi-topological structures and we find some sufficient conditions for topological algebraic structures. We also study when the epireflective functor preserves products, subspaces and other properties. In particular, we solve an open question about the coincidence of epireflections proposed by Echi and Lazar in cite[Question 1.6]{Echi:MPRIA} and repeated in cite[Question 1.9]{Echi:TP}. Finally, we apply our results in different specific topological algebraic structures.

Review text

After an excellent introduction setting the context, the authors present many nice results about epireflections, particularly in relation to subspaces and products. They characterize when an epireflection preserves subspaces and show that the \(T_0\)-reflection does. They show that an epireflective functor applied to a category of semitopological structures gives an epireflective subspace. If \(\mathcal{C}\) and \(\mathcal{E}\) are epireflective subcategories of \(\mathbf{Top}\) with \(\mathcal{E \subseteq C} \subseteq \mathbf{Top}_0\), they give a simple characterization of when the \(\mathcal{C}\)-reflection of \(X\) equals the \(\mathcal{E}\)-reflection of \(X\). They characterize when the \(T_1\)-reflection of a topological space \(X\) equals the \(T_{3.5}\)-reflection of \(X\). Several other more technical results are also given.
