A few levels of retracts were achieved. The first level is obviously the retract in the sense of Borsuk, and the second level is reflexive homotopy and its properties.</p> C. R. Parvathy, S.

Some properties are discussed for which the lattice $$F_{T,L}$$ is complemented.</p> Pinky ., T.P Johnson Copyright (c) 2019 Modern Science Publishers https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://m-sciences.com/index.php?journal=jast&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=1489 Sun, 03 Feb 2019 19:41:39 +0000 Some strong forms of connectedness in topological spaces http://m-sciences.com/index.php?journal=jast&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=1497 <p>In this paper, we study new separations of sets called half separated, half $$\alpha$$-separated, half semi separated, half pre-separated, half $$\beta$$-separated sets and corresponding to these notions introduced half connected, half $$\alpha$$-connected, half semi-connected, half pre-connected, half $$\beta$$-connected topological spaces, respectively. These are stronger forms of connectedness, $$\alpha$$-connectedness, semi-connectedness, pre-connectedness, $$\beta$$-connectedness respectively. The properties of these notions follow the same pattern.</p> B. K. Tyagi, Sumit Singh, Manoj Bhardwaj, Harsh V. S.

These different approaches of investigation produced significant charecterizations and properties of this important class of spaces. In [3] we introduced three forms of generalized continuous functions by studying the class of u-continuous functions of Joseph, Kwack and Nayar [9] using the concepts of an α-set of Njastad [13]. The generalized continuous forms introduced there are: αu-continuous, semi-αu-contnuous and strongly u-continuous functions. In the present study we investigate the class of compact and extremally disconnected spaces using these generalized continuous functions.</p> </div> </div> </div> Zeinab Bandpey, Bhamini M. P.

We introduce and study the concepts of semi-compactness in fuzzifying bitopological spaces. Also we give some properties of the semi-compactness in fuzzifying bitopological spaces.</p> A. A.

Michael and J. M. Worrell, that paracompactness and metacompactness are closed continuous invariants are presented here. A result due to Joseph and Kwack that all open sets in $$Y$$ have the form $$g(V)-g(X-V)$$, where $$V$$ is open in $$X$$, if $$g:X \to Y$$ is continuous, closed and onto is used to give these proofs. Also a characterization that a space is paracompact (metacompact) if and only if every ultrafilter of type $$P$$ (type $$M$$) converges [5], is used to give another proof of the invariance of paracompactness and metacompactness under continuous closed surgections.</p> Terrence A.

We also provide a necessary and sucient condition for a mapping into product $$g$$-quasi uniform space to be $$g$$-quasi uniformly continuous. Further, we establish the equivalence between completeness of product $$g$$-quasi uniform space and that of the component spaces.</p> Sugata Adhya, A.
