Abstract
In this paper we provide a Stone style duality for monotone semilattices by using the topological duality developed in S. Celani, L.J. González (Appl Categ Struct 28:853–875, 2020) for semilattices together with a topological description of their canonical extension. As an application of this duality we obtain a characterization of the congruences of monotone semilattices by means of monotone lower-Vietoris-type topologies.
