θ-regular spaces
In this paper we define a topological spaceXto beθ-regular if every filterbase inXwith a nonemptyθ-adherence has a nonempty adherence. It is shown that the class ofθ-regular topological spaces includes rim-compact topological spaces and thatθ-regularH(i)(Hausdorff) topological spaces are compact (regular). The concept ofθ-regularity is used to extend a closed graph theorem of Rose [1]. It is established that anr-subcontinuous closed graph function into aθ-regular topological space is continuous. Another sufficient condition for continuity of functions due to Rose [1] is also extended by introducing the concept of almost weak continuity which is weaker than both weak continuity of Levine and almost continuity of Husain. It is shown that an almost weakly continuous closed graph function into a strongly locally compact topological space is continuous.
