Abstract
The epi-reflective hull B of an objectB in the category of locales is called anice separation axiom provided it enjoys certain properties which are natural generalizations of properties satisfied by the categories of completely regular locales and zero dimensional locales. Invariably, a family ofStone-like duality theorems ensues, distinguishing (for each large enough regular cardinal κ) the full subcategory of all κ-LindelöfB-objects. Some corollaries for topological spaces arise, as well as some open problems, upon “taking of spatial parts”.
