We introduce a new covering property, defined in terms of order types of sequences of open sets, rather than in terms of cardinalities. The most general form depends on two ordinal parameters. Ordinal compactness turns out to be a much more varied notion than cardinal compactness. We prove many nontrivial results of the form ?every [?,?]-compact topological space is [?',?']-compact?, for ordinals ?,?, ?'and ?' while only trivial results of the above form hold, if we restrict to regular cardinals. Counterexamples are provided showing that many results are optimal. Many spaces satisfy the very same cardinal compactness properties, but have a broad range of distinct behaviors, as far as ordinal compactness is concerned. A much more refined theory is obtained for T1 spaces, in comparison with arbitrary topological spaces. The notion of ordinal compactness becomes partly trivial for spaces of small cardinality.

AbstractThe maximal proper prime filters together with the ultrafilters of zero sets of any metrizable compact topological space are shown to have a compact Hausdorff topology in which the ultrafilters form a discrete, dense subspace. This gives a general theory of compactifications of discrete versions of compact metrizable topological spaces and some of the already known constructions of compact right topological semigroups are special cases of the general theory. In this way, simpler and more elegant proofs for these constructions are obtained.In [8], Pym constructed compactifications for discrete semigroups which can be densely embedded in a compact group. His techniques made extensive use of function algebras. In [4] Helmer and Isik obtained the same compactifications by using the existence of Stone ech compactifications. The aim of this paper is to present a general theory of compactifications of semitopological semigroups so that Helmer and Isik's results in [4] are a simple consequence. Our proofs are different and are based on filters which provide a natural way of getting compactifications. Moreover we present new insights by emphasizing maximal proper primes which are not ultrafilters.We start by defining filters of zero sets (called z-filters) on a given topological space X, and their convergence. In the case of compact metrizable topological spaces, we establish the connections between proper maximal prime z-filters on X and zultrafilters in β(X\{x})\(X\{x}) where β(X\{x}) is the Stone-ech compactification of X\{x}. We then define a topology on the set of all prime z-filters on X such that the subspace of all proper maximal primes is compact Hausdorff. We denote by the set of all proper maximal prime z-filters on X together with the z-ultrafilters and show that when X is a compact metrizable cancellative semitopological semigroup, is a compact right topological semigroup with dense topological centre. Also, when is considered for a compact Hausdorff metrizable group, the semigroup obtained is exactly the same (algebraically and topologically) as the semigroup obtained in [4]. Hence the result in [4] is just a consequence of the general theory presented in this paper.

In this paper,  we introduce and study the notion of $\mu$-precompact spaces on the observation that  each $\mu$-preopen set of a generalized topological space is contained  in a $\mu$-open set. The $\mu$-precompactness is weaker than $\mu$-compactness but stronger than weakly $\mu$-compactness of  generalized topological 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.

Abstract In this short note, we prove that the stochastic order of Radon probability measures on any ordered topological space is antisymmetric. This has been known before in various special cases. We give a simple and elementary proof of the general result.

We are concerned with the category of topological spaces and continuous maps. A surjection f: X → Y in this category is called a quotient map if G is open in Y whenever f−1G is open in X. Our purpose is to answer the following three questions:Question 1. For which continuous surjections f: X → Y is every pullback of f a quotient map?Question 2. For which continuous surjections f: X → Y is f × lz: X × Z → Y × Z a quotient map for every topological space Z? (These include all those f answering to Question 1, since f × lz is the pullback of f by the projection map Y ×Z → Y.)Question 3. For which topological spaces Z is f × 1Z: X × Z → Y × Z a qiptoent map for every quotient map f?

PurposeThe present article deals with the initiation and study of a uniformity like notion, captioned μ-uniformity, in the context of a generalized topological space.Design/methodology/approachThe existence of uniformity for a completely regular topological space is well-known, and the interrelation of this structure with a proximity is also well-studied. Using this idea, a structure on generalized topological space has been developed, to establish the same type of compatibility in the corresponding frameworks.FindingsIt is proved, among other things, that a μ-uniformity on a non-empty set X always induces a generalized topology on X, which is μ-completely regular too. In the last theorem of the paper, the authors develop a relation between μ-proximity and μ-uniformity by showing that every μ-uniformity generates a μ-proximity, both giving the same generalized topology on the underlying set.Originality/valueIt is an original work influenced by the previous works that have been done on generalized topological spaces. A kind of generalization has been done in this article, that has produced an intermediate structure to the already known generalized topological spaces.

In the following text, we want to study the behavior of one point compactification operator in the chain Ξ := {Metrizable, Normal, T2, KC, SC, US, T1, TD, TUD, T0, Top} of subcategories of category of topological spaces, Top (where we denote the subcategory of Top, containing all topological spaces with property P , simply by P). Actually we want to know, for P∈Ξ and X∈P, the one point compactification of topological space X belongs to which elements of Ξ. Finally we find out that the chain {Metrizable, T2, KC, SC, US, T1, TD, TUD, T0, Top} is a forwarding chain with respect to one point compactification operator.

We extend van Dalen and Wattel's (1973) characterization of orderable spaces and their subspaces by obtaining analogous results for two larger classes of topological spaces. This type of spaces are defined by considering preferences instead of linear orders in the former definitions, and possess topological properties similar to those of (totally) orderable spaces (cf. Alcantud, 1999). Our study provides particular consequences of relevance in mathematical economics; in particular, a condition equivalent to the existence of a continuous preference on a topological space is obtained.

The purpose of this paper is to prove a Tychonoff theorem in the so-called “intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces.” After giving the fundamental definitions, such as the definitions of intuitionistic fuzzy set, intuitionistic fuzzy topology, intuitionistic fuzzy topological space, fuzzy continuity, fuzzy compactness, and fuzzy dicompactness, we obtain several preservation properties and some characterizations concerning fuzzy compactness. Lastly we give a Tychonoff-like theorem.
