Propounding a general categorical framework for the extension of dualities, we present a new proof of the de Vries Duality Theorem for the category $\bf KHaus$ of compact Hausdorff spaces and their continuous maps, as an extension of a restricted Stone duality. Then, applying a dualization of the categorical framework to the de Vries duality, we give an alternative proof of the extension of the de Vries duality to the category $\bf Tych$ of Tychonoff spaces that was provided by Bezhanishvili… Expand

This work provides an alternative “modal-like” duality by introducing the concept of a Gleason space, which is a pair (X,R), where X is an extremally disconnected compact Hausdorff space and R is an irreducible equivalence relation on X. Expand

This work introduces Boolean proximity algebras as a generalization of Efremovič proximities which are suitable in reasoning about discrete regions and shows that each such algebra is isomorphic to a substructure of a complete and atomic Boolean proximity algebra. Expand
