Two classes of locally compact sober spaces

Abstract

We deal with two classes of locally compact sober spaces, namely, the class of locally spectral coherent spaces and the class of spaces in which every point has a closed spectral neighborhood (CSN-spaces, for short). We prove that locally spectral coherent spaces are precisely the coherent sober spaces with a basis of compact open sets. We also prove that CSN-spaces are exactly the locally spectral coherent spaces in which every compact open set has a compact closure.
