The following sufficient conditions for acyclicity of a space are known: 1. Every space contractible to a point is acyclic. 2. Compact spaces of trivial shape are acyclic. 3. There exists a compact space of trivial shape that is not contractible. (Consequently, acyclicity does not imply contractibility to a point.) Passing to (multi-valued) multi-maps \textit{A. Suszycki} introduced the notion of multi-homotopy of multi-maps [Fundam. Math. 115, 9--26 (1983; Zbl 0529.55013)] and proved that a compact space multi-contractible to a point is acyclic. Prior to this, L. Górniewicz introduced the notion of multi-homotopy of admissible multi-maps. This paper treats a class of admissible multi-maps, named TSA-type of admissible multi maps, together with TSA-homotopy and investigates their properties. Among other results the following is proved. Let \(X\) be a compact metric space. If \(X\) is TSA-contractible to a point, then \(X\) is acyclic.
