The introduction of fuzzy sets by Zadeh has created new research directions in many fields of mathematics. Fuzzy set theory was originally restricted to the lattice , but the thrust of more recent research has pertained to general lattices. The present work is primarily focused on the theory of lattice-valued convergence spaces; the category of lattice-valued convergence spaces has been shown to possess the following desirable categorical properties: topological, cartesian-closed, and...
Show moreThe introduction of fuzzy sets by Zadeh has created new research directions in many fields of mathematics. Fuzzy set theory was originally restricted to the lattice , but the thrust of more recent research has pertained to general lattices. The present work is primarily focused on the theory of lattice-valued convergence spaces; the category of lattice-valued convergence spaces has been shown to possess the following desirable categorical properties: topological, cartesian-closed, and extensional. Properties of quotient maps between objects in this category are investigated in this work; in particular, one of our principal results shows that quotient maps are productive under arbitrary products. A category of lattice-valued interior operators is defined and studied as well. Axioms are given in order for this category to be isomorphic to the category whose objects consist of all the stratified, lattice-valued, pretopological convergence spaces. Adding a lattice-valued convergence structure to a group leads to the creation of a new category whose objects are called lattice-valued convergence groups, and whose morphisms are all the continuous homomorphisms between objects. The latter category is studied and results related to separation properties are obtained. For the special lattice , continuous actions of a convergence semigroup on convergence spaces are investigated; in particular, invariance properties of actions as well as properties of a generalized quotient space are presented.

Given a convergence space X, a continuous action of a convergence semigroup S on X and a compactification Y of X, under what conditions on X and the action on X is it possible to extend the action to a continuous action on Y. Similarly, given a Cauchy space X, a Cauchy continuous action of a Cauchy semigroup S on X and a completion Y of X, under what conditions on X and the action on X is it possible to extend the action to a Cauchy continuous action on Y. We answer the first question for...
Show moreGiven a convergence space X, a continuous action of a convergence semigroup S on X and a compactification Y of X, under what conditions on X and the action on X is it possible to extend the action to a continuous action on Y. Similarly, given a Cauchy space X, a Cauchy continuous action of a Cauchy semigroup S on X and a completion Y of X, under what conditions on X and the action on X is it possible to extend the action to a Cauchy continuous action on Y. We answer the first question for some particular compactifications like the one-point compactification and the star compactification as well as for the class of regular compactifications. We answer the second question for the class of regular strict completions. Using these results, we give sufficient conditions under which the pseudoquotient of a compactification/completion of a space is the compactification/completion of the pseudoquotient of the given space.

A complete lattice is called a frame provided meets distribute over arbitrary joins. The implication operation in this context plays a central role. Intuitively, it measures the degree to which one element is less than or equal to another. In this setting, a category is defined by equipping each set with a T-convergence structure which is defined in terms of T-filters. This category is shown to be topological, strongly Cartesian closed, and extensional. It is well known that the category of...
Show moreA complete lattice is called a frame provided meets distribute over arbitrary joins. The implication operation in this context plays a central role. Intuitively, it measures the degree to which one element is less than or equal to another. In this setting, a category is defined by equipping each set with a T-convergence structure which is defined in terms of T-filters. This category is shown to be topological, strongly Cartesian closed, and extensional. It is well known that the category of topological spaces and continuous maps is neither Cartesian closed nor extensional.Subcategories of compact and of complete spaces are investigated. It is shown that each T-convergence space has a compactification with the extension property provided the frame is a Boolean algebra. T-Cauchy spaces are defined and sufficient conditions for the existence of a completion are given. T-uniform limit spaces are also defined and their completions are given in terms of the T-Cauchy spaces they induce. Categorical properties of these subcategories are also investigated. Further, for a fixed T-convergence space, under suitable conditions, it is shown that there exists an order preserving bijection between the set of all strict, regular, Hausdorff compactifications and the set of all totally bounded T-Cauchy spaces which induce the fixed space.
