We define and discuss the notions of additivity and idempotency for neighbourhood and interior operators. We then propose an order-theoretic description of the notion of convergence that was introduced by D. Holgate and J. Šlapal with the help of these two properties. This will provide a rather convenient setting in which compactness and completeness can be studied via neighbourhood operators. We prove, among other things, a Frolík-type theorem with the introduction of reflecting morphisms. and Tholen [15] and Castellini [4] give a detailed account of the topic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
