Abstract

‎In this paper‎, ‎we define and study the notion of zero elements in topoframes; a topoframe is a pair‎ ‎$(L‎, ‎\tau)$‎, ‎abbreviated $L_{ \tau}$‎, ‎consisting of a frame $L$ and a‎ ‎subframe $ \tau $ all of whose elements are complemented elements in‎ ‎$L$‎. ‎We show that‎ ‎the $f$-ring $ \mathcal{R}(L_\tau)$‎, ‎the set of $\tau$-real continuous functions on $L$‎, ‎is uniformly complete‎. ‎Also‎, ‎the set of all zero elements in a topoframe‎ ‎is closed under the formation of countable meets and finite joins‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we introduce the notion of $z$-filters and $z$-ideals in modified pointfree topology‎ ‎and make ready some results about them‎.
