Abstract: For a topological space $X$ and an ideal $mathscrH$ of subsets of $X$ we introduce the notion of connectedness modulo $mathscrH$. This notion of connectedness naturally generalizes the notion of connectedness in its usual sense. In the case when $X$ is completely regular, we introduce a subspace $gamm{a}_{mathscrH}X$ of the Stone--v{C}ech compactification $$ of $X$, such that connectedness modulo $mathscrH$ is equivalent to connectedness of $$. In particular, we prove that when $mathscrH$ is the ideal generated by the collection of all open subspaces of $X$ with pseudocompact closure, then $X$ is connected modulo $mathscrH$ if and only if $$ is connected, and when $X$ is normal and $mathscrH$ is the ideal generated by the collection of all closed realcompact subspaces of $X$, then $X$ is connected modulo $mathscrH$ if and only if $$ is connected. Here $upsilonX$ is the Hewitt realcompactification of $X$.

Review text

A topological space \(X\) is connected modulo an ideal \(\mathcal H\) of its subsets if there is no continuous \(f:X\to [0,1]\) such that \(f^{-1}(0)\notin\mathcal H\), \(f^{-1}(1)\notin\mathcal H\), and \(X\setminus f^{-1}(\{0,1\})\in\mathcal H\). Some properties of this generalization of connectedness are compared with those of the standard notion of connectedness. It is shown that a Tychonoff space \(X\) is connected modulo \(\mathcal H\) if and only if \(\beta X\setminus\bigcup\{\text{int}_{\beta X}\text{cl}_{\beta X}H:\;\text{cl}_X H\in\mathcal H\}\) is connected. The particular cases of ideals generated by families of some closed sets (e.g. by all compact sets), or ideals generated by open sets with pseudocompact closure for Tychonoff spaces \(X\), or ideals generated by sets with realcompact closures for normal spaces \(X\) are investigated. Characterizations in terms of the difference of \(\beta X\) and the Hewitt compactification \(vX\), or of the remainder \(vX\setminus X\), are given for the particular cases based on pseudocompactness, or realcompactness, respectively.
