408 G. Garkusha and M. Prest(L4) The element 1 D sup L is compact, and 1a D a D a1 for all a 2 L.(L5) The product of two compact elements is again compact.A morphism W L ! L 0 of ideal lattices is a map satisfying _a2Aa D _ .a/ for A L;a2A.1/ D 1 and .ab/ D .a/.b/ for a; b 2 L:Let L be an ideal lattice. Following [5] we define the spectrum of prime elementsin L. An element p ¤ 1 in L is prime if ab p implies a p or b p for alla; b 2 L. We denote by Spec L the set of prime elements in L and define for eacha 2 LV.a/ Dfp 2 Spec L j a pg and D.a/ Dfp 2 Spec L j a 6 pg:The subsets of Spec L of the form V.a/are closed under forming arbitrary intersectionsand finite unions. More precisely, _ V a i D \ V.a i / and V.ab/ D V.a/[ V.b/:i2i2Thus we obtain the Zariski topology on Spec L by declaring a subset of Spec L to beclosed if it is of the form V.a/ for some a 2 L. The set Spec L endowed with thistopology is called the prime spectrum of L. Note that the sets of the form D.a/ withcompact a 2 L form a basis of open sets. The prime spectrum Spec L of an ideallattice L is spectral [5, 2.5].There is a close relation between spectral spaces and ideal lattices. Given a topologicalspace X, we denote by L open .X/ the lattice of open subsets of X and considerthe multiplication mapL open .X/ L open .X/ ! L open .X/; .U; V / 7! UV D U \ V:The lattice L open .X/ is complete.The following result, which appears in [5], is part of the Stone Duality Theorem(see, for instance, [12]).Proposition 7.1. Let X be a spectral space. Then L open .X/ is an ideal lattice. Moreover,the mapX ! Spec L open .X/; x 7! X n fxg;is a homeomorphism.We deduce from the classification of torsion classes of finite type (Theorems 2.2and 6.4) the following.
