McKinsey-Tarski algebras and Raney extensions

Abstract

We introduce the notion of Raney morphism between MT-algebras and show that the resulting category is equivalent to the category of Raney extensions. This is done by generalizing the construction of the Funayama envelope of a frame. The resulting notion of the $T_0$-hull of a Raney extension generalizes that of the $T_D$-hull of a frame.
