The space $X$ is said to have property Q if for any $K_1, K_2\\in \\mk (X)$, $K_2\\ll K_1$ in $\\mk (X)$ if{}f $K_2\\subseteq \\ii~\\!K_1$. In this paper, we give several connections among the well-filteredness of $X$, the sobriety of $X$, the local compactness of $X$, the core compactness of $X$, the property Q of $X$, the coincidence of the upper Vietoris topology and Scott topology on $\\mk (X)$, and the continuity of $x\\mapsto\\ua x : X \\longrightarrow \\Sigma~\\!\\! \\mk (X)$ (where $\\Sigma~\\!\\! \\mk (X)$ is the Scott space of $\\mk (X)$). It is shown that for a well-filtered space $X$ for which its Smyth power space $P_S(X)$ is first-countable, the following three properties are equivalent: the local compactness of $X$, the core compactness of $X$ and the continuity of $\\mk (X)$. It is also proved that for a first-countable $T_0$ space $X$ in which the set of minimal elements of $K$ is countable for any compact saturated subset $K$ of $X$, the Smyth power space $P_S(X)$ is first-countable. For the Alexandroff double circle $Y$, which is Hausdorff and first-countable, we show that its Smyth power space $P_S(Y)$ is not first-countable.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-03-14T03:29:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "upper vietoris topology", "scott topology", "smyth power space", "coincidence", "core compactness" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
