Separation axioms, subspaces and sums in fuzzy topology (Q796137)

Separation axioms are extended to fuzzy topological spaces. The authors define \(FT_ 0\), \(FT_ 1\), \(FT_ s\), \(FT_ 2\), \(FT_ 3\) and \(FT_ 4\) spaces, and, by means of counterexamples, they point out the non- coincidence of the different notions of separation. The remarkable deviation from ordinary topology is found in the non-productivity of the regularity property; localized separation axioms are also introduced in fuzzy setting. The authors also study the hereditary and the additivity behaviour of \(C_ I\), \(C_{II}\), separability and some types of compactness in fuzzy setting.
