Abstract

We investigate two approximation relations on a T0 topological space, the n-approximation, and the d-approximation, which are generalizations of the way-below relation on a dcpo. Different kinds of continuous spaces are defined by the two approximations and are all shown to be directed spaces. We show that the continuity of a directed space is very similar to the continuity of a dcpo in many aspects, which indicates that the notion of directed spaces is a suitable topological extension of dcpos.The main results are: (1) A topological space is continuous iff it is a retract of an algebraic space;(2) a directed space X is core compact iff for any directed space Y, the topological product is equal to the categorical product in DTop of X and Y respectively;(3) a directed space is continuous (resp., algebraic, quasicontinuous, quasialgebraic) iff the lattice of its closed subsets is continuous (resp., algebraic, quasicontinuous, quasialgebraic).

Sobriety of Scott topologies under countability conditions

In this paper, we focus on the sobriety of the Scott topology in countable case. Specifically, we show that: (1) every meet-continuous core-compact countable dcpo is sober with respect to the Scott topology; (2)every countable locally compact dcpo is sober endowed with the Scott topology; (3) the lattice of all open sets for the rational numbers space Q equipped with the Scott topology is not sober.

Exponentiable Objects and Function spaces in Lowen Fuzzy Topological Spaces

We study exponentiable objects and function spaces in the category of stratified Lowen fuzzy topological spaces over $\I=[0,1]$. Using the Lowen fuzzy Sierpiński object $\Sier$, which identifies $τ_X$ with $C(X,\Sier)$, we explicitly determine the largest splitting topology on this mapping set. Its open weights $Φ:τ_X\to\I$ are precisely those satisfying Scott continuity and a finite-tier compatibility condition induced by finite powers of $\Sier$. This yields an intrinsic characterization: $X$ is exponentiable if and only if every $μ\inτ_X$ satisfies \[ μ=\bigvee_{λ\triangleleftΦ} (\const{Φ(μ)}\wedgeλ), \qquad λ\triangleleftΦ \Longleftrightarrow \const{Φ(ν)}\wedgeλ\leqν \quad(ν\inτ_X). \] When this condition holds, $Y^X$ has underlying set $C(X,Y)$, with topology generated by $[Φ,v](f)=Φ(v\circ f)$. We also obtain a dual closed-set formulation and three applications. Exponentiability implies that $τ_X$ is a continuous lattice, although the converse fails. Moreover, a classical space $X$ is exponentiable exactly when its induced fuzzy space $ωX$ is exponentiable in the entire stratified Lowen category. Finally, Lowen compact, strongly fuzzy compact, and $N$-compact Hausdorff spaces are exponentiable.

Super calibers in topological spaces and topological hyperspaces

We study the notion of a super caliber of a topological space, which is closely related to the classical notion of caliber and has appeared in the literature under several different names. We collect and unify several known results and establish new results concerning the collections of super calibers of topological spaces and their hyperspaces. In particular, we investigate the relationship between the super calibers of a space $X$ and those of hyperspaces $\mathcal{H}(X)$ lying between $\mathrm{CL}(X)$ and $\mathcal{F}(X)$. For infinite metrizable spaces, we characterize several cases in which $\mathsf{SC}(X)$ and $\mathsf{SC}(\mathrm{CL}(X))$ differ and establish an independence result over \textsf{ZFC}; see Theorem~5.12.
