On some new characterizations of near paracompactness and associated results
M. N. Mukherjee and Dhananjoy Mandal
Abstract
Near paracompactness is a concept, in Set
Topology, which is weaker than paracompactness; in this paper,
several characterizations of this concept have been enunciated and
proved. In the process, several tools have been utilized. The main
theorem uses the selection theory of Michael.
Keywords: Near paracompactness; almost regularity; regular open set; semiregularization; strongly lower semicontinuous carrier.
