QRB, QFS, and the Probabilistic Powerdomain

We show that the first author's QRB-domains coincide with Li and Xu's QFS-domains, and also with Lawson-compact quasi-continuous dcpos, with stably-compact locally finitary compact spaces, with sober QFS-spaces, and with sober QRB-spaces. The first three coincidences were discovered independently by Lawson and Xi. The equivalence with sober QFS-spaces is then applied to give a novel, direct proof that the probabilistic powerdomain of a QRB-domain is a QRB-domain. This improves upon a previous, similar result, which was limited to pointed, second-countable QRB-domains.
