1. Introduction Given a nonempty set X , a collection I of subsets of X is called an ideal if (1) A E I and B 드 A implies B E I (heredity), and (2) A E I and B E I implies A U B E I (finite additivity). If X rf. I then I is called a proper ideal. Note that if I is a proper ideal then {A : X - A E I} is a 5lter; hence, proper ideals are sometimes called d ual fil ters

We denote by (X,r,T) a topological space (X,r) and an ideal T of subsets of X. Consider the following definition.
Definition. [9][13][3] A subset A of a space (X, r ,T ) is said to be T
compact if for every open cover {U", : a E [1} of A, there exists a fin 따 sub collection {U'" ‘ : i = 1,2,"', n} such that A-U{U"" : i = 1,2,"', n} E T. The space (X, r,T) is said to be T- compact if X is T-compact as a subset.
A subset A of a space (X, r ) is said to be bounded [8] iff every open cover of X contains a fini te subcollection wh ich covers A. If 5 ç X , we denote by < S >= {B 드 X:B 드 S}, the principal ideal generated by S. Observe that a subset A of a space (X, r ) is bounded iff X is < X - A > compact. We see then that compactness with respect to an ideal is useful as a unifi cation and generalization of several other widely studied concepts. Compactness with respect to an ideal (T- compactness) has been stlld ied extensively in [3] , [13] , and [9]. A topological space (X π) is compacl in the l1sual sense iff (i“f and 이아떼0 n비llyy 川iff) “it 염i s {Ø깨} -c이oorr매 ac야t ’. w‘Io/e say a space is quasi H-closed (QHC) iff every open cover of the space has a finite slIbcoJ Jection whose c10sures cover tbe space. A QHC T2 space is called H-c/os ed. T he following theorem is stated for reference
Theorem 1.1. Lel (X, r) be a topological space and lel N(r) denote the ideal of nowhere dense subsets of (X, r ). (1) [3] (X,r) isN(r)-compact 퍼 (X , r) is QHC
(2) [1 3]lf (X,r) is T2 , then (X,r) isN(r)-compact iff(X,r) is H closed. In t his paper we study the naturaJ ex tension of the concept of com pactness with respect to an ideal to “Jocal" compactness with respect to an ideal ‘ Given a topoJogical space (X ,r) and x E X , we denote by r(x) {U E r : x E U} . A sllbset A of X is called a neighborhood, abbreviated “nbd" , of x if there exists U E r (x) such that x E U 드 A. Given a subset B of X , we denote by CI(B ) and Int(B) the c10sure and interior of B with respect to r , respectively. Given a space (X, r ,T ) and a subset A of X , we denote by A*(T, r ) = {x E X : U n A if. T for every U E r (x) }, the local functioη of A with πsp ect to T and r [15]. When no ambiguity is present, we simply write Local compactness with respect to an ideal 33
A" for A*(T ,T). The set operator C I*(A) = A u A* defì. nes a Kuratowski closure operator for a topology T*(I) fìner (Iarger) than T. A basis ß(T , T) for T"(T) can be described as ß(T , T) = {U - 1 : U E T,I E T}[16] . We write T* for T"(T) and ß for ß(T , T) when no ambiguity is present. We denote by Int*(A) the interior of A with respect to T‘ We use the symbol “•" to mean “implies" “this implies", or “wh ich implies" as fits the context, as well as function designation.
2. Local I-compactness Let us begin with the following defì. nition
Definition. A space (X, T,T) is said to be loca/ly T-compacl if every point in X has an T-compad nbd. The space is said to be strongly loca /lν T-compact if every point in X has a nbd base of T- compact sets. A subset A of X is said to be (strongly) locally T-compaci if (A ,TIA ,TIA) is (strongly) locall y 피 A-com p act 、애 er e TIA is the usual subspace to이po뼈) and 피T IA = {I n A : 1 E T}. It is readily seen that all T-compact space is locally T-compact and that a strongly locall y T-compact space is lo call y T-compact. We will see shortly, however, that an T-compact space (and hence a lo cally T-compact space) need not be strongly locally T-compact, even if the space is T2 ‘ Given a space (X, T, T), we say that T is regular ψith respect 10 T" if each point in X has a T-nbd base of T* -closed sets
Theorem 2.1. Let (X, T,T) be a T2 space. lf (X, T,T) is slrongly locally T-compact, then T is regular with respect to T* Proof Let X E X and U E T(X). Since (X, T,T ) is strongly locally T compact, there exists an T-compact subset F and W E T(X) such that
X E W 드 F 드 U. Since (X, T ) is T2 , F is T"-closed [9], and the proof is complete An ideal T on a space (X, T) is said to be T-bounda711 [9] iff T n T = {0}.
Theorem 2.2. Lel (X,T,T ), be a s띠pa αce 11ψv뼈j regular ilJ T is regular w뼈l Proηof Necess잉íty ís 이0 b~、v씨r이i o u s . To show suflì ciency, assume T is regular with respect to T" and let X E X , U E T(X) . Then there ex ists V E T"(X) such that X E V 드 Cl’ (V) 드 U. By Theorem 9 of [14] , there exists G E T(X) 34 T.R. Hamlett and Oavid Rose such that x E V 드 G 드 C/(G) 드 C/"(V) 드 U. Hence X has a T-nbd base of T-closed sets at each point and is regular. We note that if (X, T,I) is a space and I n T = {0}, then T and T" have the same regu/ar open su bsets (U 드 (X, T) is regular open iff U = Int(CI(U))) . Specifically, if U E T", then CI(U) = CI"(U). This follows easi ly from T heorem 9 of [14]. The follow ing example shows that local T-compactness does not imply strong local T-compactness.
Example 1. Let X = [0,1] be the closed unit interval with a the usual topology as a subspace of the reals, and let S = {* n 1,2,3,"'} Denote by < S >= {B 드 X:B 드 S}, the p,-incipal i d e미 generaled by S. Letting T = a"(T) , we have that T"{ T ) = T (in general, T*' = T" [10 ]). (X, a) is compact 좌 and henæ < S >-compact T2 • (X,T) is < S > compact T2 [9]. Observing that T is not regular (hence not regular with respect to T* ) we conclude from the previous theorem that (X , T) is not strongly locally T-compact.
We see then that local T-compactness and strong local T-compactness are not equivalent, even in T2 spaces, in contrast to the situation with regard to local {까 compactness (i.e. , the us ual ‘“%‘ s야tro띠Jng local {애”띠} -co mψpa야ctnes잃s wh비11κch are 여e qUJv뻐a떠le히따n1πt in T2 얘s p ace얹s. In 매t hi녕s pape야r 、we 、씨‘w"i비l11 concentrate on the conκcep마t 이0 f local T- comψpactness. \Ve re mark, h 아,veve r , that if (X, T ,T) is I-compact and T is regular with res pect to T ‘, then (X , T ,T) is strongly locally T-compact since T*-closed subsets are T-compact [3 , Theorem 2.4] The usual notion of loca l compactness ([6] every point has a compact nbd) is obviously equ ivalent to local {에 -compac tness. In [12] Porter de fin es a Hausdorff space to be locally H -c/osed iff every point has a nbd which is H-closed as a s1!bspace. We define a space to be locally QHC if every point has a nbd which is QHC as a subspace and note that a
T2 space is locally H-closed iff it is locally QHC. The follow ing theo rems show that in T2 spaces the concepts of locall y H -closed and locally N(T ) 一 compact are eq uivalent If (X, T ,T) is a space and I< 드 X , we denote by I II< = {I n I< : 1 E T} = {I E T: 1 드 I<}. TI I< is easily seen to be an ideal on X.
Theorem 2.3. Lel (X, T,T) be a space with A 드 K 드 X. Then A is T !K - compact in (I< , T!K) (where TI I< 잉 lhe 1!s1!al lopology on I< as a subspace Local compactness with respect to an ideal 35 of(X,r)) iff A is I-compact in (X,r).
Proof (Necess따). Assume A is IJI<-compact in I< and let {U" : ü' E .6} be a r -open cover of A. Then {U" n I< : ü' E .6} is a rJ I< open cover of A and hence there exists a finite 5 뼈 collection {U"‘ n I< : i = 1,2, ... , n} such that A - U{U", n I<: i = 1,2,'" ,n} E IJ I<. The identity (1) A - U(U", n I<) = A - UU", shows that A is I-compact (Sufficiency). Assume A is I-compact and let {U" n I< : ü' E .6} be a rJI<-open cover of A. Then {U" Ü' E .6} is a r-open cover of A Extracting a finite subcollection which covers all of A except for a part of A in the ideal and using the above identity (1) complet얹 the proof
Corollary 2.4. Let (X,r , I) be a space with F 드 X an I-compact subset. [f A 드 F is r’ closed, the η A is I-compact. Proof It is easily shown that (rJF)*(IJF) = r‘ (I) JF. Thus A being r* closed • A is IJF- compact in the subspace F • A is I-compact by the previous theorem The well known result that closed subsets of compact subsets are com pact follows from Corollary 2.4 by taking I = {Ø}
Theorem 2.5. Let (X,r ,I) be a 자 space. Then (X, r) is locally I compact iff for every x E X there exists U E r(x) such that CI*(U) is I-compact Proof Sufficiency is obvious. To show necessity, assume (X, r ,I) is locally I-compact and let x E X. There exists U E r(x) and an I-compact F 드 X such that x E U 드 F. F is r 까 losed [9] since (X, r) is T2 , and hence Cl‘ (U) 드 F. But Cl‘ (U) is a r‘ closed su bset of an I- cor매 act subset, and hence I-compact, by Corollary 2.4.
、‘Te will need the following lemma to establish the equivalence of local
N( r )-compactness and local H-closedness in T2 spaces Recall that a subset F of a space (X, r) is said to be regular c/osed iff F = Cl(Int(F))
Lemma 2.6. Lel (X, r) be a space with F 드 X. (1) N( 서 F) 드 N(r)JF (2) [f F is regular c/osed, th en N(rJF) = N(r)JF. Proof (1) It is well known and not difficult to show that a subset N of COIltamnollemptya space (Yopen, σ) IS setnowhere whose denseIntersection lfr every wlth nonempty N Is empty- open setNow let E E 36 T.R. Hamlett and David Rose
N(rlF) and let U E r - {0}. 1f U n F ¥ 0, there exists V E r such that O¥ VnF 드 U n F and (V n F) n E = 0 • V n E = 0. Let W = U n v, then W 드 U, W E r - {0} since W n F = V n F # 0, and W n E = ø since W 드 V. If U n F = 0, then U n E = 0. 1n either case, we conclude that E E N(r) and hence E E N(r )IF. (2 ) We need only show N(r)IF 드 N(rIF). Assume E 드 F and E f/. N(rIF); i.e. , IntF(CIF(E)) ¥ 0. Now let IntdCl(E)) = W n F where W E r. Since F is regular closed, we must have W n Int(F) ¥ m and hence ø¥ wnlnt(F) 드 wnF = IntF(Cl(E)) 드 CI(E) • O¥ Wn
Int(F) 드 Int(Cl(E)). Therefore E f/. N(r)IF and N(r)IF 드 N(rIF) ‘ If (X,r) is a space with F a closed subset of X , then (F,r lF) is QHC iff (F, r lF) is N(rlF)-compact by Theorem 1.1. T hu s (F, rlF) being QHC • F is N(r)IF-compact (since N(rlF) 드 N(r)IF) in (F,r lF) and hence F is N(T)-compact as a subset of (X,r ). 1n particu lar, H-closed subspaces are N(r)-compact as subsets. Thus 10 α lly H-closed spaces are locally N (r)-compact. An example of an N(r)-compact subset whi ch is
not an H-cl osed subspace is provided in [3]‘ However, we can prove the following result
Theorem 2.7. Let (X,T) be a Hat때 orff space. Then (X, r) is locally H-closed 얘 (X, r ) is locally N (r)-compact Proof 1n light of the above remarks, we need only show sufficiency. As sume (X, r ) is locally N( r )-compact and let x E X . By Theorem 2.5, there exists U E r (x) such that Cl*(U) is N(r)-compact. Let F = Cl‘ (U). By Theorem 2.3 , (F,rIF) is N(r)IF-com pact as a subspace. H follow s from Theorem 9 of [14] that CZ*(U) = CI(U) , hence F is regular closed. By Lemma 2.6, N (r)I F = N(rIF). Thus (F,rIF) is N(rlF)-compact as a subspace and hence H-closed as a subspace by Theorem 1.1. 1n Example 3.4 of [12], Porter exhibits a closed subspace F of an H closed space whi ch is not locally H-closedj in particular, the subspace is not H -closed. It is shown in [3] that a r* -closed subset of an I -compact space is I-compact. Thus the closed suhspace of Portel'’ s example is N( r ) compact and not N(rlF)-compact, hence N(rIF) # N(r)IF in this exam ple. This shows that the regular closed hypothesis is necessary in Lemma 2.6, (2) Local compactness with respect to an ideal 37
3. Subspaces It is well known that a subspace of a Hausdorff space is locally compact implies it is locally closed (the intersection of an open and closed set), and in a locally compact Hausdorff space, the intersection of an open set with a closed set is locally compact. Porter [12] shows that in a Hausdorff space, a locally H-closed subspace is locally closed and the converse doesn’t hold even in an H-closed space. More generally, we have the following.
Theorem 3.1. Lel (X,r,I) be a Hausdorffspace. Th en A 드 X is locally I -compact implies A = V n F wh ere V E r and F is r* -c/osed Pmof It suflìces to show that A is rI CI*(A) -open. Let x E A, then there exists U E (rIA)(x) such thal CIÄ( U) is I-compact. Note that (rI A)"(IIA) = r‘ IA. Let U = A n V where V E T. Then CI*(A n V) n A = CI*(U) n A = C따 (U) and hence CI’ (A n V) n A is r*-closed. Now AnV 드 CI*(A n V) n A 드 A • CI‘ (A n V) 드 CI*(A n V) n A 드 A • CI*(A) n V 드 A since CI‘ (A ) n V 드 CI*(A n V) . Thus CI‘ (A) n V is a rI C I" (A) nbd of x conlained in A, showing that A is r ICI" (A)-open‘ An immediate consequence of Theorem 3.1 is the observation that a r*-dense lo cally I -compact subspace of a Hausdorff space must be r-opcn
The converse of Theorem 3.1 is fal se as the subspace X - 5 of Example 1 shows.
Example 2. Let X , O", I , r , and 5 be as in Example 1. X - 5 is an open subspace of (X, r) which is I-compact and T2 , but 0 E X 一 5 has no II(X - 5)-compact nbd. Indeed, letting V(a) = [0, a) - S we have that {V(a): a E S} is a rl(X -S)-nbd base at 0 and Clx_s(V(a)) = [O ,a) - 5 is not I I(X - 5)-compact (note that I I(X - 5) = {0}) for any a E S . Thus there does not exist a rl(X - S) nbd U of 0 such that Clx_s(U) is II(X - 5)-co mpact, and hence the open subspace (X - 5끼 (X - 5)) is not locall y II(X - 5)-compact. Lemma 3.2. Let (X , r ) be a space. If U E r then N(r )IU = N (r lU). Pmof We need only show N(r)1U ç N(rIU). Let A 드 U. Then Intu(C1u(A )) = 1 η tu[Cl(A) n U] = Int[CI(A) n U] 드 I 떠 (CI(A) ) . Thus if A E N(r) IU , then A E N(rIU) Example 3.4 of [12] provides an example of an open subspace U of an
N(r)-compact T2 (actually an H-closed sem ireg 비 ar) space which is not 38 T.R. Hamlett and David Rose locally H-closed. This subspace cannot be locall y N(r)-compact. For i[ it were, each point x in the subspace would have a regular closed JV(r)IU compact nbd F. By Lernma 3.2, F would be N(rIU)-compact. Now N(rIU)IF = N((rIU)IF) since F is regular closed • F is an H -closed subspace o[ (U, rlU) and U would be locally H- closed. This contradiction sh 。、,vs that U is not locally N( r )-compact. A partial converse to Theorem 3.1 is provided by the following three theorems.
Theorem 3.3. Let J( be an I-compact subset 01 a space (X ,r ,I). 11 A is r* -closed, then J( n A is IIA-compact in (A , rIA). Proof Let {U" n A : (} E <"'>} be an open cover o[ f( n A in (A , rIA). Then {U,, : (} E <"'>} U{X -A} is ar‘ open cover o[ J( and hence there exists a finite s 배 co ll ect i on {U,,;: i = 1,2,'" ,n}U {X -A} which covers all o[ J( except for a set in I. The fin 따 subcollection {U,,;nA: 1,2, ... ,n} must then cover all o[ J( n A except for a set in I
Theorem 3 .4. Let (X, r , I) be locallν I -compact with A a r*-closed subset 01 X . Then (A , r IA,IIA) is locally IIA- cor깨 act. Proof Let x E A. There exists U E r(x) and an I-compact subset F o[ X such that x E U ç F. Now x E U n A 드 F n A, U n A E (r IA)(x) and F n A is IIA-compact by Theorem 3.3. Given a space (X, r) and letting N(r) denote the ideal of nowhere dense sets, the topology r* (N(r)) is known in the literature as 꺼 and the r* -closed sets are called (}- c/osed
Corollary 3.5. Let (X,r) be a locally H- c/osed Hausdorff space ω ith A an Q-c/osed subset 01 X. Then (A,rIA) is locally N(r)IA-compact. Proof This [ollows immediately from Theorem 2.7 and Theorem 3.4. Note that in Example 2, r is not regular with respect to r*.
Theorem 3.5. Let (X , r,I ) be locally I-compact with r reguiar ψ ith res pect to r ‘ . JI A E r , then A is locallν IIA-compact. Proof Let x E A, then there exists U E r(x) and a r*-closed subset F such that x E U 드 F 드 A. Sin ce (X, r) is locally I-compact, there exists V E r(x) and an I-compact subset J( such that x E V 드 f(. Nowwehave xE(UnV) 드 (I( n F) 드 F 드 A, J( n F is IIF-compact in F (Theorem 3.3), and hence f( n F is IIA-compact in A (Theorem 2.3). Thus J( n F is an IIA-compact nbd of x in (A , rIA).

4. Preservation by Functions
It is well knα,v n that local compactness is preserved by continuous open surjections. In this section we prove an analagous result in a more general setting. Given spaces (X,T ,I ) and (Y,O'), a function f : (X,T ,I ) • (Y, a) is said to be pointwise I-continuous [5] (abbreviated PIC) iff f : (X, T*) • (Y, a) is con t inuo 야 . It is easily verified [9] that f(I) = {f(I) : 1 E I} is an ideal on Y. We will say the function f is pointwíse I -open (abbreviated PIO) iff f: (X,T) • (Y, a* (f(I))) is open. We will state the following easily verified lemma without proof
Lemma 4.1. Let (X,T,I) be a space. Jf A 드 X , then A is an I -compact subset Of(X,T) iff A is an I-compact subset Of(X,T“) . Lemma 4.2. A space (X, T,I) is locally I -compact íff(X, T* ,I) is locally I-compact. Proof Necessity. Assume (X,T,I) is locally I-compact and let X E X Then there exists U E T(X) and an I -compact, in (X,T) ,I( 드 X such that X E U 드 K. By Lemma 4.1 , K is I-compact in (X,T*) and hence (X, T*) is locally I -compact Sμ:fficiency. Assume (X, T* , I) is locally I -compact and let X E X Then there exists U E T, J E I , and an I-compact, in (X, T*) , K 드 X such that X E U - J 드 K. Now x E U 드 K U l , K U J is I -compact in (X , T) and the proof is complete.
Theorem 4.3. Let f : (X, T, I) • (Y,a) be a PIC fuπ clion from the space (X,T,I ) to the space (Y,a). Jf A 드 X is I-compact , then f(A) 드 Y is f(I)-compact
Proof Let {U" : a E l:>} be a a-open cover of f(A) . Then U- 1 ( κ) : a E l:>} is a T* -open cover of A. By Lemma 4.1 , there exists a finite su bcollection {f-l (V"‘) : i = 1,2," . , n} such that A - U;j-l (V".) E I . Now, since f (A) - U;V"‘ 드 f [A - U;j-' (V".)] E f (I ), we ∞ nclude that f(A) is f(I)-compact by heredity of f(I).
Theorem 4 .4. Let f (X, T,I) • (Y,O',f(I )) be a PIC and PIO surjection. lf (X, T,I) is locallν I -compact, then (Y, a,f(I)) is locally f(I)- compact. Proof Let y E Y and let x E f-l(y). There exists U E T(X) , K an I compact subset of X , such that X E U 드 K; hence, f(x) E f(U) 드 f(K). 40 T .R. Hamlett and David Rose

The classical result that local ∞ mpactness is preserved by continuous open surjections is obtained from Theorem 4.4 by letting I = {0}. Given a space (X ,T), we noted earlier that T* (N(T) ) is known in the literature as 까 Also, a fun ction f (X,T) • (Y,a) is known as an o: -homeomorphism iff f (X, T" ) • (Y, a") is a homeomorphism It is shwon in [4] that a function is an o: -hom eomor p hismκ it is a seπmT따l homeomor아찌r디대phi s m s (o: -hom∞ morphi s ms ) are known as semi-lo1Jological pmp erties [1] (o:-topological properties)

Assume that (X , T) is locally N(T)-compact. A semi -homeomorphism (o:-homeomorphism) is both PN(T) C a.nd PN(T)O, hence by Theorem 4.4 (Y,a) is 10ca.lIy f(N(T))-compact. By Theorem 1.2 of [1] , f(N(T) ) 드 N (a) , thus we ha.ve (Y, a) is locally N( a )-compact
Given topological spaces (X, T ,I) and (Y, σ) , a bijection f : (X, T , I) • (Y,a) is called a "-homeomorphism with respect to T, I , and a [4] if f : (X, T*(I) ) • (κ 。"(I (I))) is a homeomorphism. Properties preserved by "-homeomorphisms are ca.lIed *-topological properties [4 ].

X ", is P,, (T)-compad by Theorem 4.3; and for each o;, X"" is locally P",, (T)-compad by Theorem 4.4. The classical res u1t for local compactness is an immedi ate co rollary obtained by taking T = {0} . The Obreanu res ult [11] cannot be obtained as an immedi ate corollary since the projection maps do not necessarily preserve nowhere densene8s.
Theorem 5.2. Let {(X"" r"" T,,) : 0 E l',.} be a colleclion of spaces ψhich are locally T", -compact for each 0 , and for all 0 rt s = {01, 02, . . . , On} let X" be T", -compacl. lf T is an ideal on Il X ", such that P;l(T",) 드 T for every 0 , then (Il X "" Il r""T) is locallν T-compact. Proof Let x = (x", ) E Il X ", . For each x"', there exists an T", -compact sub8et f{"" of X "" and U" , E r",(x" ,) 8uch that x", E U" , 드 f{" ,. Now
letting f{ = f{"" x !( "'2 x ‘ X f{"," x Il {X", : 0 rt s }, we have that J( i8 T- compact as a su bspace of Il X", by the generalized TychonolI Theorem
of Rancin [13], and hence is an T-compact nbd of x in Il X ", . The classical result concern ing local compactness is obtained as an immediate corollary by lettin g each T", = {0} and T = {0} . To obtain the res ult of Obreanu [11] concern ing locally /f-c1osed spaces we nced the following lemma whose ea8y proof is omitted
Lemma 5.3. If f : (X,r) • (Y,O") is continuous and open and B E N(O"), then f -1(B) E N(r). 42 T.R ‘ Hamlett and David Rose
Corollary 5 .4[11]. Let {(X",T,,): a E 6} be a collection of (Hausdorff) locally H -c/osed spaces all but a finit e number of ψhich are H - c/osed. Then mX" , n T ,,) is locally H -c/osed. Proof The result follows immediately from Theorem 2.7, Theorem 5.2, and Lemma 5.3.
