This article deals with some results stating that the properties of being injective, surjective, continuous, strongly surjective, and stably solvable, carry over to weakly-near maps. For operators \(A\) and \(B\) between Banach spaces \(X\) and \(Z\), \(A\) is weakly-near to \(B\) if for every \(x,y\in X\) \[ \langle Ax-By,\zeta\rangle \geq\varphi \bigl(\| Bx-By \|\bigr)\| Bx-By\|\quad \text{ for some }\zeta\in J(Bx-By) \] \((J\) is the normalized duality mapping in \(Z\), \(\varphi:\mathbb R_+\to\mathbb R_+\) is a function such that \(\varphi(0)\), \(\varphi (r)>0\) for \(r>0\), \(\liminf_{r\to r_0} \varphi(r)=0\Rightarrow r_0=0\), and \(\liminf_{r\to \infty} \varphi(r)>0)\) and if \(A\circ B^{-1}: B(X)\to 2^Z\) has a continuous selection. The main results are the following: if \(A\) is weakly-near to \(B\) ,then: \(B\) is injective \(\Rightarrow A\) is injective, \(B\) is surjective \(\Rightarrow A\) is surjective; \(B\) is injective w.r.t. \(A\), \(B(X)\) is open \(\Rightarrow A(X)\) is open; \(B\) is injective w.r.t. \(A\), \(B\) is continuous \(\Rightarrow A\) is continuous; \(B\) is a homeomorphism \(\Rightarrow A\) is a homeomorphism; and some similar ones. The notion ``\(B\) is injective w.r.t \(A\)'' is not explained, however.
