Mappings and decompositions of continuity on almost Lindelöf spaces (Q884175)

Summary: A topological space \(X\) is said to be almost Lindelöf if for every open cover \(\{U_{\alpha }:\alpha \in \Delta \}\) of \(X\) there exists a countable subset \(\{\alpha _{n}:n\in \mathbb N\}\subseteq \Delta \) such that \(X=\cup _{n\in \mathbb N}\text{Cl}(U_{\alpha _{n}})\). In this paper we study the effect of mappings and some decompositions of continuity on almost Lindelöf spaces. The main result is that a \(\theta\)-continuous image of an almost Lindelöf space is almost Lindelöf.
