K. Fan's theorem in fuzzifying topology (Q707352): Difference between revisions

The authors give a new definition of connectivity in a fuzzifying topological space and generalize a known theorem of K. Fan to their setting [Fan's theorem says that a topological space \(X\) is connected iff for any \(a\), \(b\) of \(X\), there is a finite subset \(\{x_1,x_2,\dots, x_n\}\) of \(X\) such that \(x_1= a\), \(x_2= b\) and \(N(x_i)\cap N(x_{i+1})\neq\phi\), for \(i= 1,2,\dots, n-1\), where \(N: X\to\wp(X)\) such that \(N(x)\) is neighbourhood of \(x\) for all \(x\in X\)].
