Characterizations of some near-continuous functions and near-open functions (Q1084695): Difference between revisions

A subset N of a topological space is defined to be a \(\theta\)- neighborhood of x if there exists an open set U such that \(x\in U\subseteq Cl\) \(U\subseteq N\). This concept is used to characterize the following types of functions: weakly continuous, \(\theta\)-continuous, strongly \(\theta\)-continuous, almost strongly \(\theta\)-continuous, weakly \(\delta\)-continuous, weakly open and almost open functions. Additional characterizations are given for weakly \(\delta\)-continuous functions. The concept of \(\theta\)-neighborhood is also used to define the following types of open maps: \(\theta\)-open, strongly \(\theta\)-open, almost strongly \(\theta\)-open, and weakly \(\delta\)-open functions.
