COMPACTNESS IN INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY TOPOLOGICAL SPACES A. A. RAMADAN, S. E. ABBAS, AND A. A. ABD EL-LATIF Received 4 April 2004 and in revised form 17 September 2004 We introduce fuzzy almost continuous mapping, fuzzy weakly continuous mapping, fuzzy compactness, fuzzy almost compactness, and fuzzy near compactness in intuition- ˇ istic fuzzy topological space in view of the definition of Sostak, and study some of their properties. Also, we investigate the behavior of fuzzy compactness under several types of fuzzy continuous mappings. 1. Introduction and preliminaries The concept of a fuzzy set was introduced by Zadeh [ 13], and later Chang [3] defined fuzzy topological spaces. These spaces and their generalizations are later studied by several ˇ authors, one of which, developed by Sostak [11, 12], used the idea of degree of openness. This type of generalization of fuzzy topological spaces was later rephrased by Chattopad- hyay et al. [4], and by Ramadan [10]. In 1983, Atanassov introduced the concept of “Intuitionistic fuzzy set” [1, 2]. Using this type of generalized fuzzy set, C¸ oker [5, 8] defined “Intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces.” In 1996, C¸ oker and Demirci [7] introduced the basic definitions and properties of ˇ intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces in Sostak’s sense, which is a generalized form of ˇ “fuzzy topological spaces” developed by Sostak [11, 12]. In this paper, we introduce the follwing concepts: fuzzy almost continuous mapping, fuzzy weakly continuous mapping, fuzzy compactness, fuzzy almost compactness, and fuzzy near compactness in intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces in view of the definition ˇ of Sostak.
