COMPLETION OF A CAUCHY SPACE WITHOUT THE T2-RESTRICTION ON THE SPACE NANDITA RATH (Receive d5 April 1999 an din revise dform 27 April 1999) Abstract. A completion of a Cauchy space is obtaine dwithout the T2 restriction on the space. This completion enjoys the universal property as well. The class of all Cauchy spaces with a special class of morphisms calle s -maps form a subcategory CHY of CHY. A com- pletion functor is define dfor this subcategory. The completion subcategory of CHY turns out to be a bireflective subcategory of CHY . This theory is applie dto obtain a characteri- zation of Cauchy spaces which allow regular completion.

Introduction. The completion of Cauchy spaces is already well known an dfamil- iar to most of us. In fact, since Keller [5] introduce dthe axiomatic definition of Cauchy spaces a very rich an dextensive completion theory has been develope dfor Cauchy spaces during the last three decades [2, 3, 7, 10, 12]. It seems that Cauchy space rather than uniform convergence space is a natural generalization of completion of uniform space. But the completion theory develope dso far is not so general in nature as the Cauchy spaces considere dare T2 Cauchy spaces [3, 6, 7, 8]. So the natural question arises, “whether a satisfactor
