Theory of topological molecular lattices (Q1197837)

The theories of point set topology, fuzzy topology and \(L\)-fuzzy topology, are brought into a unified theory -- the theory of topological molecular lattices (TML). The minimal family theory and the maximal family theory in a complete lattice are studied. If \(L\) is a completely distributive lattice and \(M\) is the set of all \(\vee\)-irreducible elements except 0 then the elements of \(M\) are called molecules and \(L\) is a molecular lattice. For such lattices the concepts of closed elements, closed topology (co-topology), remote-neighbourhoods, molecular nets are introduced. The theory of pointwise topology on molecular lattices is developed. Convergence, continuity, countability, separability, separation axioms, connectivity and quasi-uniformity are investigated.
