Characterizations of extremally disconnected spaces (Q1114962): Difference between revisions

Characterizations of extremally disconnected spaces in terms of preopen, semi-open and semi-preopen sets are presented. A set \(A\subset X\) is preopen if \(A\subset Int cl A\) whereas it is semi-open if for some open set \(U\subset X\), \(U\subset A\subset cl A\). A set A is semi-preopen if for some preopen set \(U\subset X\), \(U\subset A\subset cl A\). Among other results the author shows that X is extremally disconnected iff for every semi-open set \(A\subset X\) and every semi-preopen set \(B\subset X\), the intersection \(A\cap B\) is semi-open.
