Generalized prime -filters of distributive lattices
The concept of generalized prime -filters is introduced in distributive lattices. Generalized prime -filters are characterized in terms of principal filters and ideals. The notion of generalized minimal prime -filters is introduced in distributive lattices and properties of minimal prime -filters are then studied with respect to congruences. Some topological properties of the space of all prime -filters of a distributive lattice are also studied.
