Abstract

For topological spaces Y and Z, C(Y,Z) represent the set of continuous functions from space Y to space Z. Let A be an arbitrary intersection of non-empty open subsets of Y. In this paper, we develop the set C(Y,Z) of continuous functions from space A to space Z and construct topologies on this set to form the underlying function space Cζ(Y,Z) of the function space Cτ(Y,Z). We define continuous maps between the spaces X, A and Cζ(Y,Z), and show that topologies defined on the set C(A,Z)are either RA⋐Y-splitting or RA⋐Y-admissible.
