D-proximity spaces

Given a developable space \(X\) with development \(\{{\mathcal U}_ n: n\in N\}\), define \(A\delta B\) iff \(\hbox{St}(A,{\mathcal U}_ n)\cap B\neq\emptyset\) for each \(n\in N\). The authors obtain a compatible LO- proximity which, in addition satisfies: ``\(A\) non\(\delta B\) implies the existence of subsets \(C\), \(\{C_ n: n\in N\}\) of \(X\) such that \(B\subset C\), \(X-C=\bigcup\{C_ n: n\in N\}\), \(A\) non\(\delta C\) and \(C_ n\) non\(\delta C\) for each \(n\). The authors define a \(D\)-proximity to be an LO-proximity which satisfies this additional condition. They show that the induced topology of a \(D\)- proximity is a \(D\)-completely regular space. \(D\)-completely regular spaces have been defined by \(H. Brandenburg\) [Hüllenbildungen für die Klasse der entwickelbaren topologischen Räume, Diss. Freie Univ. Berlin (1978)]\ and studied by \textit{N. C. Heldermann} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 262, 437-446 (1980; Zbl 0459.54014)]. The authors give several examples and methods of constructing \(D\)-proximities.
