Abstract

In this note we present a counterexample for a result in [2], where the concept of continuous interval posets (CI-posets for short) was introduced. A CI-poset is a poset in which every nonempty interval [x,y] is a continuous poset (in the restricted order) and the above mentioned result is about continuous functions spaces [XP], where X is a core compact topological space and P is a CI-poset (with its Scott topology).

Counterexample

For all the basic concepts and notations of this note the main reference is [1].

The result for which we will present a counterexample is:

Proposition 1.1

[2]

Let P be a continuous poset such that (i) Each interval of P is a sup-semilattice and (ii) Each principal ideal has a (necessarily unique) smallest element. For a core compact space X, each principal ideal of [XP] is a continuous poset and a sup-semilattice with smallest element. If additionally P is a dcpo, then [XP] is a continuous dcpo.
