Weak regularity and consecutive topologizations and regularizations of pretopologies
2009
Abstract L. Foged proved that a weakly regular topology on a countable set is regular. In terms of convergence theory, this means that the topological reflection Tξ of a regular pretopology ξ on a countable set is regular. It is proved that this still holds if ξ is a regular σ -compact pretopology. On the other hand, it is proved that for each n ω there is a (regular) pretopology ρ (on a set of cardinality c ) such that ( RT ) k ρ > ( RT ) n ρ for each k n and ( RT ) n ρ is a Hausdorff compact topology, where R is the reflector to regular pretopologies. It is also shown that there exists a regular pretopology of Hausdorff RT -order ⩾ ω 0 . Moreover, all these pretopologies have the property…
Erratum to “Irregularity” [Topology Appl. 154 (8) (2007) 1565–1580]
2012
[2, Proposition 4.4] states that each regular pretopology is topologically regular. Professor F. Mynard (Georgia Southern University) advised the authors that he was not convinced by the proof of that proposition, which enabled us to realize the proposition is wrong, as the example below shows. Recall that (e.g., [2]) a pretopology ξ on a set X is called regular if Vξ (x)⊂ adh ξ Vξ (x) (respectively, topologically regular if Vξ (x)⊂ cl ξ Vξ (x)) for every x ∈ X . As a consequence, in the sequel of [2], regular should be read topologically regular in a few instances, in particular in [2, Theorem 4.6]. [2, Proposition 4.4] is also quoted in [3], where it is used in some reformulations of clas…
Convergence-theoretic characterizations of compactness
2002
AbstractFundamental variants of compactness are characterized in terms of concretely reflective convergence subcategories: topologies, pretopologies, paratopologies, hypotopologies and pseudotopologies. Hyperquotient maps (perfect, quasi-perfect, adherent and closed) and quotient maps (quotient, hereditarily quotient, countably biquotient, biquotient, and almost open) are characterized in terms of various degrees of compactness of their fiber relations, and of sundry relaxations of inverse continuity.
