Abstract: The first author introduced a measure of compactness for families of sets, relative to a class of filters, in the context of convergence approach spaces. We characterize a variety of maps (types of quotient maps, closed maps, and variants of perfect maps) as those respecting this measure of compactness under one form or another. We establish a product theorem for measure of compactness that yields as instances new product theorems for spaces and maps, and new product characterizations of spaces and maps, thus extending existing results from the category of convergence spaces to that of convergence approach spaces. In particular, results of the Mr`owka-Kuratowski type are obtained, shedding new light on existing results for approach spaces.


The authors of this research paper define several concepts within the realm of convergence approach spaces that are relative to a certain class of filters \(\mathbb{D}\). In the first part they define \(\mathbb{D}\)-compact filters, \(\mathbb{D}\)-quotient maps and \(\mathbb{D}\)-perfect maps and prove that, depending on which class of filters is used, these concepts are equivalent with certain well known properties of convergence approach spaces, such as countable compactness and closed-expansive maps. The second part of this paper contains two equivalent descriptions of \(\mathbb{D}\)-0-compactness that generalise the Kuratowski-Mròwka characterisation of compactness for topological spaces.
