Abstract

The concept of $\lambda$-super socle of $C(X)$, denoted by $S_\lambda(X)$ (i.e., the set of elements of $C(X)$  such that the cardinality of their cozerosets are  less than $\lambda$, where $\lambda$  is  a regular cardinal number with  $\lambda\leq |X|$)  is introduced and studied. Using this concept we extend some of the basic results concerning $SC_F(X)$, the super socle of $C(X)$ to $S_\lambda(X)$, where $\lambda \geq\aleph_0$. In particular, we determine spaces $X$ for which $SC_F(X)$ and $S_\lambda(X)$ coincide.  The one-point $\lambda$-compactification of a discrete space is algebraically characterized via the concept of  $\lambda$-super socle. In fact we show that $X$ is the one-point $\lambda$-compactification of a discrete space $Y$ if and only if $S_\lambda(X)$ is a regular ideal and $S_\lambda(X)=O_x$, for some $x\in X$.
