Abstract

Neutrosophic crisp sets are an important and recent topic that has entered both pure and applied mathematics, especially general topology. A neutrosophic crisp topological space is defined as a generalization of classical topology in a broad sense, without specifying the type of neutrosophic crisp family or the algebraic operations of union and intersection, in addition to the kind of complement and the kinds of inclusion.

In this research on the neutrosophic crisp topological space, we constructed such a space in which the intersection is fixed as Type I, the union as Type II, and the complement as Type II for all kinds of neutrosophic crisp families, and we considered the two kinds of inclusion. Within this framework, we defined two kinds of closure for a neutrosophic crisp set and two kinds of interior for a neutrosophic crisp set.

We studied all relations, results, and theorems from general topology on them, as well as the properties related to them and the relationship between the closure and the interior of a neutrosophic crisp set. We proved all relations, results, and theorems that hold and gave examples of those that do not; however, many properties failed to hold.

We also defined continuity in the constructed neutrosophic crisp topological space and proved all corresponding relations, results, and theorems in topology that hold, while providing examples of those that do not hold.

1. Introduction

A. A. Salama, Florentin Smarandache, and Valeri Kroumov1,2 introduced the neutrosophic crisp set ( ƝՄҪRʂ ) and also defined the neutrosophic crisp topological space (ƝՄҪ T ), and they presented three types of these neutrosophic crisp sets as follows:

Let Sȵ=<S1,S2,S3> be a neutrosophic crisp set

Type I: S1S2=,S1S3=,S2S3=.

Type II: S1S2=,S1S3=,S2S3=,andS1S2S3= Ҳ

Type III: S1S2S3=,andS1S2S3= Ҳ

Two kinds of the union operation and two kinds of the intersection operation were also defined

Let Sȵ=<S1,S2,S3> and Mȵ=<M1,M2,M3> be two neutrosophic crisp sets in Ҳ .

Type I: Sȵ1Mȵ = <S1M1,S2M2,S3M3>

Type II: Sȵ2Mȵ = <S1M1,S2M2,S3M3>

Type I: Sȵ1Mȵ = <S1M1,S2M2,S3M3>

Type II: Sȵ2Mȵ = <S1M1,S2M2,S3M3 >

In addition, Four kinds of the empty set and the universal set were also defined, namely,

1ȵ=<,,Ҳ>,2ȵ=<,Ҳ,>,3ȵ=<,Ҳ,Ҳ>,4ȵ=<,Ҳ,>
Ҳ1ȵ=<Ҳ,,,>,Ҳ2ȵ=<Ҳ,Ҳ,>,Ҳ3ȵ=<Ҳ,,Ҳ>,Ҳ4ȵ=<Ҳ,Ҳ,Ҳ>

Moreover, they defined three kinds of complements, two kinds of inclusion, and equality, as follows.

Let Mȵ=<M1,M2,M3> be a neutrosophic crisp set in Ҳ,then complement of Mȵ is divided into three:

Type I :(Mȵ)c1=<M1C,M2C,M3C>

Type II: (Mȵ)c2=<M3,M2,M1>

Type III :(Mȵ)c3=<M3,M2C,M1>

For any two a neutrosophic crisp sets Sȵ=<S1,S2,S3> and Mȵ=<M1,M2,M3> in Ҳ, two subset relations are defined as:

Type I: Sȵ1Mȵ S1M1,S2M2,M3S3

TypeII:Sȵ1MȵS1M1,M2S2,M3S3

From the definition of set inclusion, two distinct forms of equality are obtained:

TypeI:Sȵ =1 Mȵ Sȵ1MȵandMȵ1Sȵ

TypeII:S =2 MȵSȵ2MȵandMȵ2Sȵ

Subsequently, many researchers contributed additional relations, results, and theorems for neutrosophic crisp sets and neutrosophic crisp topological spaces. Among them, Qahtan, G. A., Jabar, L. A. A., Rasheed, I. M., and Ali, R. D.3 presented a generalization of both the ideal function and the local function via neutrosophic crisp sets, offering results and properties that reinforce the concept of the generalized local function; through its properties, their work was used to deduce the properties of the ψNC-operator that they generalized within neutrosophic crisp set spaces.

Furthermore, Ali, R. D., Jabar, L. A. A., Qahtan, G. A., and Shakir, A. Y.4 focused on the concept of the kernel within neutrosophic crisp sets and its relationship with the separation axioms in neutrosophic crisp topological spaces, highlighting the concordance among them and shedding light on the properties that characterize their structure.

In this research, we constructed a neutrosophic crisp topological space in which we fixed the intersection as Type I, the union as Type II, and the complement as Type II, while using the two kinds of inclusion. In this setting, we presented two kinds of closure for a neutrosophic crisp set and two kinds of interior for a neutrosophic crisp set, and we proved all related relations, results, and theorems. We also studied continuity on the constructed neutrosophic crisp topological space and proved all related relations, results, and theorems in general topology that hold, providing examples of those that do not hold.

The collection of all such neutrosophic crisp sets over Ҳ is usually denoted by ƝՄҪℜʂ.

3. Neutrosophic crisp topological space ( ƝՄҪ T (1,2) -space)

In this section, we construct a neutrosophic crisp topological space in which the intersection is defined as Type I, while both the union and the complement are defined as Type II, considering all possible neutrosophic crisp families.

Definition 3.1:

The pair (Ҳ, T ) is said to form a Neutrosophic Crisp Topological (ƝՄҪ T (1,2)-space) when the following criteria are satisfied:

  • a. 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ > T , and Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ,, > T .

  • b. For any Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ T , the set Ҥȵ 1 Ҡȵ T .

  • c. If Ҥȵ 𝑗 T ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, then j2Ҥȵ 𝑗 T .

For any Ҡȵ T , it is a neutrosophic crisp open set (ƝՄҪO − set), and (Ҡȵ)c2 is a neutrosophic crisp closed set (ƝՄҪҪ − set).

Example 3.2:

Let Ҳ = {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑} and T = { 1ȵ , Ҳ1ȵ , Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ , Mȵ } such that Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >, Ҡȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐} >, Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐} >. Then (Ҳ, T ) is 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space.

Example 3.3:

Let Ҳ = {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑} and T = { 1ȵ , Ҳ1ȵ , Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ }, such that Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐}> Ҡȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐} >. Then T is not ƝՄҪ T (1,2) – space. Since Ҥȵ 1 Ҡȵ= <{a},{d},{c}>1 < {𝑎}, {b}, {𝑐} > = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐} > T.

Corollary 3.4:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 (ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space), and let ψ = {Ƒ: Ƒ 𝑖𝑠 a ƝՄҪҪ−set} satisfy the following conditions:

  • i. If Ҥȵ 𝑗 ψ ∀ 𝑗 ∈, then 1jҤȵ 𝑗 ψ .

  • ii. If Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ ψ , then Ҥȵ 2 Ҡȵ ψ .

Proof:

  • i. Suppose Ҥ1ȵ,Ҥ2ȵ,Ҥ3ȵ,are ƝՄҪҪ− sets in a ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space (Ҳ, T ).

Hence, Ҥ1ȵc2,Ҥ1ȵc2,Ҥ1ȵc2,are ƝՄҪO − sets. Therefore, 2jҤjȵc2is ƝՄҪO – set.

But (Ҥȵ1Ҡȵ)c2=(Ҥȵ)c22(Ҡȵ)c2. So, (1jҤjȵ)c2=2jҤjȵc2 .

Thus, (1jҤjȵ)c2is ƝՄҪO – set. Therefore, 1jҤjȵ ƝՄҪҪ − set. Hence, 1jҤjȵψ .

  • ii. Suppose Ҥȵ , Ҡȵaretwo ƝՄҪҪ – sets in a ƝՄҪ T (1,2) –space (Ҳ, T ).

So, Ҥȵc2 , Ҡȵc2 aretwo ƝՄҪO − sets, thus (Ҥȵ)c21(Ҡȵ)c2 is ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡. But (Ҥȵ2Ҡȵ)c2=(Ҥȵ)c21(Ҡȵ)c2 . Therefore (Ҥȵ2Ҡȵ)c2 is ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡.

Thus,Ҥȵ2Ҡȵ is ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡. Hence,Ҥȵ2Ҡȵψ .

4. Neutrosophic crisp closure sets (ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2)

In this section, we introduced two types of closures for neutrosophic crisp sets and examined all the related properties, discovering that most of these properties do not hold.

Definition 4.1:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2) –space. The neutrosophic crisp closure of neutrosophic crisp set Ҥȵ, denoted by ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ), and we define the neutrosophic crisp closure of Ҥȵ by:

ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ)=1j{Ӻjȵ:ӺjȵisƝՄҪҪsetsand Ҥȵ1Ӻjȵj}
  • ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) is ƝՄҪҪ – set by Corollary 3.4.

Example 4.2:

Let Ҳ = {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑} and T = { 1ȵ , Ҳ1ȵ , Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ , Mȵ } ∋ Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >, Ҡȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐} >,

Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐} >. So, (Ҳ, T ) is 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Therefore:

  • i. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >) does not exist since Neutrosophic crisp closed set Ӻȵ Ҥȵ1Ӻȵ .

  • ii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Aȵ=<{b},,> )= Ҳ1ȵ=<Ҳ,,> .

  • iii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( MȵC2=<{c},,{a}> ) = MȵC2=<{c},,{a} >.

  • iv. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Mȵ=<{a},,{c}> ) = Ҳ1ȵ=<Ҳ,,>

  • v. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( ҤȵC2 = < {c}, {d}, {a} >) = ҤȵC2 = < {c}, {d}, {a} >.

  • vi. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( ҠȵC2 = < {c}, {b}, {a} >) = ҠȵC2 = < {c}, {b}, {a} >.

  • vii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( UȵC2 = < {a},{b}, >) does not exist since Neutrosophic crisp closed set Ӻȵ UȵC21Ӻȵ .

  • viii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >) = 1ȵ= < ,,Ҳ >

  • ix. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, > = Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >

Remark 4.3:

In neutrosophic crisp topological spaces (ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space), it is not always the case that every subset admits a ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 . Specifically, certain subsets may exist for which no neutrosophic crisp closed superset can be identified within the given topology. Such subsets are thus said to possess no closure with respect to this structure. For instance, as demonstrated in Example 4.2, the set ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ =< {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >) fails to exist in this context.

Definition 4.4:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. The neutrosophic crisp closure of neutrosophic crisp set Ҥȵ, denoted by ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵ ) and we define the neutrosophic crisp closure of Ҥȵ by: ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵ ) = 1j{Ӻjȵ : Ӻjȵ is ƝՄҪҪ – sets and Ҥȵ 2 Ӻjȵj}

  • ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵ ) 𝑖𝑠 ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡 by Corollary 3.4.

Example 4.5:

Let Ҳ = {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑} and T = { 1ȵ , Ҳ1ȵ , Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ , Mȵ } such that Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >, Ҡȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐}>, Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐} >. So, (Ҳ, T ) is 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Therefore:

  • i. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >) = Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >

  • ii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Aȵ = < {b}, , >) = Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >

  • iii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Uȵ = < ,{b},{a} >) = Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >

  • iv. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( MȵC2 = < {c}, , {a} >) = < {c}, , {a} >

  • v. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐}>) = Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >

  • vi. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( ҠȵC2 = < {c}, {b}, {a} >) = MȵC2 = < {c}, , {a} >

  • vii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >) = 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >

  • viii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >) = Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >

Corollary 4.6:

  • i. Let (Ҳ, T ) be ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space and Mȵ 1 Ҳ1ȵ . Then Mȵ 1 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Mȵ ).

  • ii. Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space and Sȵanyneutrosophic crispset. Then Sȵ 2 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Sȵ ).

Remark 4.7:

For instance, consider Example 4.2, where Ҥȵ = <{𝑎},{𝑑},{𝑐}> and Ҥȵ 1 Ҳ1ȵ .

In this case, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) does not exist; therefore, Ҥȵ 1 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ), which shows that the condition of Corollary 4.6 (i) fails.

Theorem 4.8:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Then Ҥȵ is ƝՄҪҪ– 𝑠𝑒𝑡 if and only if ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) = Ҥȵ .

Proof:

If ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) = Ҥȵ , then Ҥȵ ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡 by Definition 4.1.

Conversely, Let { Ƒȵ 𝑗 = < Ƒ 𝑗1, Ƒ 𝑗2, Ƒ 𝑗3 >: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪҪ – sets such that Ҥȵ = < Ҥ1, Ҥ2, Ҥ3 > ⊆1 Ƒȵ 𝑗 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽. Since Ҥ1 Ƒ 𝑗1 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, Ҥ2 Ƒ 𝑗2 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, Ҥ3 Ƒ 𝑗3 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽.

Hence,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) = 1jƑȵj =< ∩𝑗 Ƒ 𝑗1, ∩𝑗 Ƒ 𝑗2, ∪𝑗 Ƒ 𝑗3 > = < Ҥ1, Ҥ2, Ҥ3 > = Ҥȵ.

Remark 4.9:

For instance, consider Example 4.5, where Ҡȵc2 is NCC−𝑠𝑒𝑡. In this case ,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( ҠȵC2 ) = Mȵc2ҠȵC2; which shows that the condition of Theorem 4.8 fails.

Theorem 4.10:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space, and Mȵ is any neutrosophic crisp set. Then Mȵ 2 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Mȵ ).

Proof:

Let { Ƒȵ 𝑗 = <Ƒ𝑗1, Ƒ𝑗2, Ƒ𝑗3 >: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s such that Mȵ= < M 1, M 2, M 3 > ⊆2 Ƒȵ 𝑗 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽. Since, M 1 ⊆ Ƒ𝑗1 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, M 2 ⊇ Ƒ𝑗2 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, M 3 ⊇ Ƒ𝑗3 ∀ 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽. Therefore, M 1 Ƒ𝑗1, M 2 Ƒ𝑗2, M 3 ⊇ ∪Ƒ𝑗3. Hence, Mȵ 2 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Mȵ ).

Remark 4.11:

For instance, consider Example 4.2, where Ҥȵ = <{𝑎},{𝑑},{𝑐}>. In this case, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) does not exist; therefore, Ҥȵ 1 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) , which shows that the condition of Theorem 4.10 fails.

Theorem 4.12:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space and Ҥȵ= 1, Ҥ2, Ҥ3> be a ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡. If Uȵ=<U1,U2,U3>isanyneutrosophic crispsetUȵ 1Ҥȵ,thenƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ ) 1Ҥȵ.

Proof:

Since ,ҪՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ ) = 1jӺȵ 𝑗 = <∩ Ӻ 𝑗1, ∩ Ӻ 𝑗2, Ӻ 𝑗3> ∋ Ӻjȵ is ƝՄҪҪ – sets and Uȵ 1 Ӻjȵj.

Therefore, U1Ӻj1j,U2Ӻj2j,U3Ӻj3j . Since, U 1 ⊆ Ҥ1, U 2 ⊆ Ҥ2, U3 ⊇ Ҥ3 and Ҥȵ is ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡. Thus, Ӻj1Ҥ1j,Ӻj2Ҥ2j,Ӻj3Ҥ3j.Hence,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ ) 1Ҥȵ .

Remark 4.13:

For instance, consider Example 4.5, where ҠȵC2 = < {c}, {b}, {a} > is a ƝՄҪҪ –𝑠𝑒𝑡 and Lȵ=<, {𝑏},{𝑎}> 2ҠȵC2 . In this case, ҪՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Lȵ)=<{c},,{a}>2ҠȵC2,which shows that the condition of Theorem 4.12 fails.

Corollary 4.14:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space and Ҥȵ= < Ҥ1, , Ҥ3 > be a ƝՄҪҪ –𝑠𝑒𝑡. If Uȵ=<U1,,U3>isanyneutrosophic crispsetUȵ 2Ҥȵ,thenƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ ) 2Ҥȵ.

Proof:

Since ,ҪՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ ) = 1jӺȵ 𝑗 = <∩ Ӻ 𝑗1, ∩ Ӻ 𝑗2, Ӻ 𝑗3> ∋ Ӻjȵ is ƝՄҪҪ – sets and Uȵ 2 Ӻjȵj.

Therefore, U1Ӻj1j,Ӻj2j,U3Ӻj3j . Since, U 1 ⊆ Ҥ1, U 2 = Ҥ2 = , U3 ⊇ Ҥ3 and Ҥȵ is ƝՄҪҪ –𝑠𝑒𝑡. Thus, Ӻj1Ҥ1j,Ӻj2=,Ӻj3Ҥ3j.Hence,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ ) 1Ҥȵ .

5. Neutrosophic crisp interior sets (ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1,ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2)

In this section, we introduced two types of interiors of neutrosophic crisp sets and studied all the related properties, where it was found that most of these properties do not hold.

Definition 5.1:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space then the neutrosophic crisp interior of neutrosophic crisp set Mȵ, denoted by ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Mȵ ), and we define the neutrosophic crisp interior of Ҥȵ by:

ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1(Mȵ)=2𝑗{Gjȵ:GjȵisƝՄҪOset andGjȵ1Mȵj}.
  • ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Mȵ ) 𝑖𝑠 ƝՄҪՕ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡

Example 5.2:

Let Ҳ = {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑} and = { 1ȵ , Ҳ1ȵ , Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ , Mȵ }, where Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >, Ҡȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐} >,

Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐} >. So, (Ҳ, T ) is 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Therefore:

  • i. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >) = Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐} >.

  • ii. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Aȵ = < {b}, , >) = 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >.

  • iii. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( MȵC2 = < {c}, , {a} >) = 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >.

  • iv. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐}>) = Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐}>.

  • v. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( ҠȵC2 = < {c}, {b}, {a} >) = 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >.

  • vi. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ = < ,{b},{a} >) = 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >.

  • vii. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Lȵ =< {a},{d} , >) = Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐}>.

  • viii. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >) = 1ȵ = < ,,Ҳ >.

  • ix. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >) = Ҳ1ȵ = < Ҳ ,, >.

Definition 5.3:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Then the neutrosophic crisp interior of neutrosophic crisp set M, denoted by ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Mȵ ), and we define the neutrosophic crisp interior of Mȵ by :

ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(Mȵ)=2𝑗{GjȵGjȵ𝑖𝑠ƝՄҪOsetsandGjȵ2Mȵj}.
  • ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Mȵ ) 𝑖𝑠 ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡

Example 5.4:

Let Ҳ = {𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑑} and T = { 1ȵ , Ҳ1ȵ , Ҥȵ , Ҡȵ , Mȵ }, where Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >, Ҡȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐} >, Mȵ = < {𝑎}, , {𝑐} >. So, (Ҳ, T ) is 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Therefore:

  • i. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >) = Ҥȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑑}, {𝑐} >.

Remark 5.5:

In neutrosophic crisp topological spaces (ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space), it is not always the case that every subset admits a ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 . Specifically, certain subsets may exist for which no neutrosophic crisp open superset can be identified within the given topology. Such subsets are thus said to possess no interior with respect to this structure. For instance, as demonstrated in Example 5.4, the set ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Uȵ =< ,{b},{a} >) fails to exist in this context.

Theorem 5.6:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Then Ҡȵ is ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡 if and only if ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Ҡȵ ) = Ҡȵ

Proof:

If ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Ҡȵ ) = Ҡȵ , then Ҡȵ is ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡 by Definition.5.3.

Conversely Let { Gȵj = < Gj1 , Gj2 , Gj3 >: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪO –𝑠𝑒𝑡s ∋ Gȵ 𝑗 2Ҡȵ=<Ҡ1,Ҡ2,Ҡ3>jJ . So, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Ҡȵ ) = 2jGȵj=<jGȵj1,jGȵj2,jGȵj3> = < Ҡ1 , Ҡ2 , Ҡ3 > = Ҡȵ since 𝘎𝑗1 Ҡ 1 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, 𝘎𝑗2 Ҡ 2 ∀𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, 𝘎𝑗3 Ҡ 3 ∀𝑗 ∈𝐽.

Remark 5.7:

For instance, consider Example 5.2, where Ҥȵ is ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡. In this case, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ )= MȵҤȵ , which shows that the condition of Theorem 5.6 fails.

Theorem 5.8:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space and Mȵ be any neutrosophic crisp set. Then ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Mȵ ) ⊆1 Mȵ .

Proof:

Let { Gȵj = < Gj1 , Gj2 , Gj3 >: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪՕ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s ∋ Gȵ 𝑗1 Mȵ =< M1 , M2 , M3 > ∀ 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽 since 𝐺𝑗1 M 1 ∀ 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, 𝐺𝑗2 M2 ∀ 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽, 𝐺 𝑗3 M 3 ∀ 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽. Therefore, ∪𝑗 𝐺𝑗1 M 1, ∩𝑗 𝐺𝑗2 M 2, ∩𝑗 𝐺𝑗3 M 3. Hence, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Mȵ ) ⊆1 Mȵ

Remark 5.9:

For instance, consider Example 5.4, where ҠȵC2=<{c}, {b} ,{a}> is any neutrosophic crisp set. In this case, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ҠȵC2 ) = <,,Ҳ>=1ȵ2ҠȵC2 . This example demonstrates that the condition of Theorem 5.8 fails.

Theorem 5.10:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space, Ҡȵ=<Ҡ1,Ҡ2,Ҡ3> be a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡, and Uȵ=<U1,U2,U3> be any neutrosophic crisp set, Ҡȵ2Uȵ,thenҠȵ 2ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Uȵ ).

Proof:

ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Uȵ ) = 2jGȵ 𝑗 = < G𝑗1, ∩G𝑗2, G𝑗3 > ∋ { Gȵj = < Gj1 , Gj2 , Gj3 >: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s ∋ Gȵ 𝑗 2Uȵ . Therefore, Gj1U1j,Gj2U2j,Gj3U3j.Since, Ҡ1⊆ U1, Ҡ2 U 2, Ҡ3 U 3 and Ҡȵ is ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡. Thus, Ҡ1Gj1j,Ҡ2Gj2j,Ҡ3Gj3j.

Hence, Ҡȵ 2ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Uȵ ).

Remark 5.11:

For instance, consider Example 5.2, Ҥȵ= < {a}, {d}, {c} >, which is ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡 andҤȵ1Lȵ=< {a},{d} , > . In this case, Ҥȵ1ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Lȵ ) =< {a}, ,{c} >, which shows that the condition of Theorem 5.10 fails.

Corollary 5.12:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space and Ҡȵ= < Ҡ 1, , Ҡ 3 be a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡, and Uȵ=<U1,,U3> be any neutrosophic crisp set, Ҡȵ1Uȵ,thenҠȵ1 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Uȵ ) .

Proof:

ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Uȵ ) = 2jGȵ 𝑗 = < G𝑗1, ∩G𝑗2, G𝑗3 > ∋ { Gȵj = < Gj1 , Gj2 , Gj3 >: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s ∋ Gȵ 𝑗 1Uȵ . Therefore, Gj1U1j,Gj2,Gj3U3j.Since, Ҡ1 ⊆ U1, Ҡ2 = U 2 = , Ҡ3 U 3 and Ҡȵ is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡. Thus, Ҡ1Gj1j,=Gj2j,Ҡ3Gj3j . Hence, Ҡȵ 1ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Uȵ ).

Theorem 5.13:

Let (Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space and Ҥȵ be any neutrosophic crisp set. Then

  • i. [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ)]c2= ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵc2 ).

  • v. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) = [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵc2)]c2

  • vi. ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵ ) = [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ҥȵc2)]c2

  • vii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) = [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(Ҥȵc2)]c2

  • viii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵ ) = [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1(Ҥȵc2)]c2

Proof:

i. Let Ҥȵ = < Ҥ1, Ҥ2, Ҥ3 > and { Gȵ 𝑗 = <𝘎𝑗1, 𝘎𝑗2, 𝘎𝑗3>: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be family of ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s such that Gȵj 1 Ҥȵc2 = <Ҥ3, Ҥ2, Ҥ2 >. So, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵc2 ) = 2jGȵ 𝑗 = < 𝘎𝑗1, ∩𝘎𝑗2, ∩𝘎𝑗3>…….(1)

Thus, Gȵjc2=<Gj3,Gj2,Gj1>:jJ}be the family of ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s.

Ҥȵ2Gȵjc2.So,Ҥ1Gj3jJ,Ҥ2Gj2jJ,Ҥ3Gj1jJ.

Therefore, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ)=1jGȵjc2=<jGj3,jGj2,jGj1>.

Hence, ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ))c2=<jGj1,jGj2,jGj3> …….(2)

From (1) and (2) we get [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ)]c2= ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵc2 ).

ii. Let Ҥȵ = < Ҥ1, Ҥ2, Ҥ3 > and { Gȵ 𝑗 = <𝘎𝑗1, 𝘎𝑗2, 𝘎𝑗3>: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be family of ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s such that Gȵj 2 Ҥȵc2 = <Ҥ3, Ҥ2, Ҥ2 >. So, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵc2 ) = 2jGȵ 𝑗 = < 𝘎𝑗1, ∩𝘎𝑗2, ∩𝘎𝑗3>…….(1)

Thus, Gȵjc2=<Gj3,Gj2,Gj1>:jJ}be the family of ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s.

Ҥȵ1Gȵjc2.So,Ҥ1Gj3jJ,Ҥ2Gj2jJ,Ҥ3Gj1jJ.

Therefore, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ)=1jGȵjc2=<jGj3,jGj2,jGj1>.

Hence, ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ))c2=2jGȵj=<jGj1,jGj2,jGj3> …….(2)

From (1) and (2) we get [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ)]c2= ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵc2 ).

iii. LetҤȵ=<Ҥ1,Ҥ2,Ҥ3> and { Ӻȵ 𝑗 = <Ӻ𝑗1, Ӻ 𝑗2, Ӻ 𝑗3>: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s such that Ҥȵc2=<Ҥ3,Ҥ2,Ҥ1> 1 Ӻȵj . So, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵc2 ) = 1jӺȵ 𝑗 = <∩Ӻ𝑗1, ∩Ӻ𝑗2, Ӻ𝑗3>…….(1)

Now {Ӻȵjc2=<Ӻj3,Ӻj2,Ӻj1>:jJ}be the family of ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s,

Ӻȵjc22Ҥȵ.So,Ӻj3Ҥ1jJ,Ӻj2Ҥ2jJ , Ӻj1Ҥ3jJ .

Therefore ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ)=2jӺȵjc2=<jӺj3,jӺj2,jӺj1>.

Hence, ( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ))c2=<jӺj1,jӺj2,jӺj3> …….(2)

From (1) and (2) we get [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ)]c2= ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵc2 ).

iv. Proof: Ҥȵ =<Ҥ123> and { Ӻȵ 𝑗 = <Ӻ𝑗1, Ӻ 𝑗2, Ӻ 𝑗3>: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪҪ – sets such that Ҥȵc2=<Ҥ3,Ҥ2,Ҥ1> 2 Ӻȵj . So, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵc2 ) = 1jӺȵ 𝑗 = <∩Ӻ𝑗1, ∩Ӻ𝑗2, Ӻ𝑗3>…….(1)

Now {Ӻȵjc2=<Ӻj3,Ӻj2,Ӻj1>:jJ}be the family of ƝՄҪO – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s,

Ӻȵjc21Ҥȵ.So,Ӻj3Ҥ1jJ,Ӻj2Ҥ2jJ,Ӻj1Ҥ3jJ.

Therefore ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ)=2jӺȵjc2=<jӺj3,jӺj2,jӺj1>.

Hence, ( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ))c2=1jӺȵj=<jӺj1,jӺj2,jӺj3> …….(2)

From (1) and (2) we get [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1(Ҥȵ)]c2= ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ҥȵc2 ).

v. Let Ҥȵ = <Ҥ123> and { Gȵ 𝑗 = <𝘎𝑗1,𝘎𝑗2,𝘎𝑗3>: 𝑗 ∈ 𝐽} be the family of ƝՄҪO – sets such that Gȵj 1 Ҥȵ = <Ҥ123>. So, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ) = 2jGȵ 𝑗 = < 𝘎𝑗1, ∩𝘎𝑗2, ∩𝘎𝑗3>…….(1)

Now Gȵjc2=<Gj3,Gj2,Gj1>:jJ} the family of ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡s

Ҥȵc22Gȵjc2.So,Ҥ3Gj3jJ,Ҥ2Gj2jJ,Ҥ1Gj1jJ.

Therefore, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵc2)=1jGȵjc2=<jGj3,jGj2,jGj1>.

Hence, ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵc2))c2=<jGj1,jGj2,jGj3> …….(2)

From (1) and (2) we get ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( Ҥȵ ). = [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵc2)]c2 .

The proof of parts (vi (to) viii) is demonstrated in a similar manner.

Remarks 5.14:

  • i. For instance, consider Examples 5.4 and 4.5, where Uȵ =< ,{b},{a} > is a ƝՄҪℜs.

    In this case, [ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Uȵ)]c2=1ȵ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( UȵC2 ) =Ҡȵ = < {𝑎}, {𝑏}, {𝑐} >, which shows that the condition of [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Mȵ)]c2= ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( Mȵc2) fails.

Corollary 5.15:

Let(Ҳ, T ) be 𝑎 ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space. Then:

  • i. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ҳ1ȵ ) =Ҳ1ȵ = <Ҳ,,>

    So, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( 1ȵ ) = 1jӺȵ 𝑗 = <∩Ӻ𝑗1, ∩Ӻ𝑗2, Ӻ𝑗3>. Since, 1ȵ is ƝՄҪҪ – 𝑠𝑒𝑡. Hence, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( 1ȵ ) = 1jӺȵ 𝑗 = 1ȵ.

6. Continuity (1,2) Functions in Crisp Neutrosophic Topology (ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space)

In this section, we investigate the concept of continuity within the constructed space (ƝՄҪT(1,2)–space). Furthermore, we examine and prove all relations, results, and theorems established in classical topology within this framework. Illustrative examples are also provided to demonstrate the relations, results, and theorems that fail to hold under the new setting.

Definition 6.1:

A function f from a neutrosophic crisp topology spaces ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space (Ҳ,TҲ) into a neutrosophic crisp topology space ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–space (Y,TY) will be said to be a neutrosophic crisp continuous(1,2) function if The inverse of every ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Y is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

Example 6.2:

Let Ҳ={a,b,c},TҲ={1ȵ,Ҳ1ȵ,Aȵ,Bȵ}Aȵ=<{a},.>,Bȵ=<{a},,{c}>,andY={s,r,t}, TY={Φ1ȵ,Y1ȵ,Mȵ,Rȵ}Mȵ=<{s},.>,Rȵ=<{s},,{t}> . So, (Ҳ,TҲ)and(Y,TY)are ƝՄҪ T (1,2) –spaces. Let f:ҲY be a function defined by f(a)=s,f(b)=r,f(c)=t . Thenfisaneutrosophic crispcontinuous(1,2) function since f1(Φ1ȵ)=1ȵ,f1(Y1ȵ)=Ҳ1ȵ , f1(Mȵ)=Aȵandf1(Rȵ)=Bȵ,such that1ȵ,Ҳ1ȵ,AȵandBȵ are ƝՄҪO– 𝑠𝑒𝑡s in Ҳ.

Example 6.3:

Let Ҳ={a,b,c},TҲ={1ȵ,Ҳ1ȵ,Aȵ,Bȵ}Aȵ=<{a},.>,Bȵ=<{a},,{c}>,andY={s,r,t}, TY={Φ1ȵ,Y1ȵ,Mȵ,Rȵ}Mȵ=<{s},.>,Rȵ=<{s},,{t}> . So, (Ҳ,TҲ)and(Y,TV)are ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–spaces. Let f:ҲY be a function defined by f(a)=s,f(b)=tandf(c)=r.Thenfis notaneutrosophic crispcontinuous(1,2)function . Since, f1(Rȵ)=<{a},,{b}> is not a ƝՄҪO– 𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

Corollary 6.4:

If f:(Ҳ,TҲ)(Y,TY) is a bijective neutrosophic crisp. Then the following conditions stand in equivalence:

  • i. The inverse of every ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Y is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

  • ii. The inverse of every ƝՄҪҪ –𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Y is a ƝՄҪҪ–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

  • iii. f ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Mȵ))1[ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f(Mȵ)], Mȵ 1 Ҳ1ȵ.

Proof:

(i→ii) Suppose Ɉȵ is ƝՄҪҪ–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈 .So,(Ɉȵ)c2 is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈. So, f1((Ɉȵ)c2) is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ

By Corollary 2.8, f1((Ɉȵ)c2)=(f1(Ɉȵ))c2 . Therefore, (f1(Ɉȵ)c2 is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ. Hence,f1(Ɉȵ) is a ƝՄҪҪ–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

Conversely, Suppose ȵ is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈 .So,(ȵ)c2 is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Y . So ,f1((ȵ)c2) is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ

By Corollary 2.8 ,f1((ȵ)c2)=(f1(ȵ))c2 . Therefore, (f1(ȵ))c2 is a ƝՄҪҪ–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ. Hence,f1(ȵ) is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

(ii iii):

Since,Mȵ1[ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Mȵ)], Mȵ 1 Ҳ1ȵ . By Corollary 4.6.(i). Therefore, Mȵ1f −1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f(Mȵ)) By Corollary 2.6 (i) and Corollary 4.6 (i). Since, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f(Mȵ) is a ƝՄҪҪ–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈 . So,f −1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f(Mȵ)) is a ƝՄҪҪ–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ. Therefore, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1Mȵ)1f 1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f(Mȵ)).

So,f ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Mȵ)1f[f −1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f(Mȵ))] . Hence,f ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Mȵ))1 [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f(Mȵ)] .

Conversely, Suppose ɈȵisaƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈.

So, f[ ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f1(Ɉȵ))]1 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f[f1(Ɉȵ)]1[ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1Ɉȵ ] = Ɉȵ . By Theorem 4.8. Therefore, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f1(Ɉȵ)1f1(Ɉȵ).So,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1f1(Ɉȵ)=f1(Ɉȵ) . Hence,f1(Ɉȵ)isaƝՄҪҪset in Ҳ.

Corollary 6.5:

Let f:(Ҳ,TҲ)(Y,TY) be bijective neutrosophic crisp function if The inverse of every ƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈 is aƝՄҪҪset in Ҳ, then f ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ))2 [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ)], Ҥȵ is aƝՄҪҪset in Ҳ.

Proof:

Since,Ҥȵ2 ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ) By Theorem 4.10. Thus, Ҥȵ2f −1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ)) By Corollary 2.6 (i) and Corollary 4.6 (i). Since, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ) isaƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈 .So,f −1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ)) isaƝՄҪҪset in Ҳ. Therefore, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2Ҥȵ)2f −1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ)).So,f ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ)2f[f −1( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ))] .

Hence,f ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ))2 [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ)] .

Remark 6.6:

For instance, consider example Let Ҳ={a,b,c},TҲ={1ȵ,Ҳ1ȵ,Aȵ,Bȵ}Aȵ=<{a},.>,Bȵ=<{a},,{c}>,andY={s,r,t},TY={Φ1ȵ,Y1ȵ,Mȵ,Rȵ}Mȵ=<{s},.>,Rȵ=<{s},,{t}> . So (Ҳ,TҲ)and(Y,TY)are ƝՄҪ T (1,2)–spaces. Let f:ҲYbeafunction definedby

f(a)=t,f(b)=r,f(c)=s.

In this case, f ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ҥȵ))2 [ ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2f(Ҥȵ)], Ҥȵ is a ƝՄҪҪset in Ҳ, but Mȵc2=<,,{s}>isaƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈, so f1(Mȵc2)=<,,{c}> is not aƝՄҪҪset in Ҳ. Hence, it becomes clear that the converse of Corollary 6.5 is not valid.

Theorem 6.7:

The following statements are mutually equivalent:

  • i. f:ҲYisaneutrosophic crispcontinuous(1,2) function.

  • ii. f1 ( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) )2 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( f1(ȵ )), ȵis a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈.

  • iii. ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(f1(Ɉȵ))1f1 ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ɉȵ)),Ɉȵis a ƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈.

Proof:

(i ii)

Suppose ȵisaƝՄҪOset in 𝚈. Since ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈 by Definition 5.3, because of fisaneutrosophic crispcontinuous(1,2).So,f1( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) ) is ƝՄҪO– 𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

Since, f1( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) )2f1(ȵ) by Theorom 5.6 and Corollary 2.5(ii).

Hence,f1( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) )2 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( f1(ȵ )) by Theorem 5.10.

Conversely, let ȵ be aƝՄҪOset in 𝚈. Then ȵ= ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) byTheorom5.6 .

So,f1(ȵ ) = f1 (ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) )2 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( f1(ȵ )) 2f1(ȵ)

Thus,f1(ȵ) = ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2f1 ( ȵ ). Thereforef1(ȵ) is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ. Hence, f is a neutrosophic crisp continuous(1,2) function.

(ii iii)

Let Ɉȵ be a ƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈.

Since, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1 ( Ɉȵ ) = [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(Ɉȵc2)]c2 by Theorem 5.13vii.

So, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(f1 ( Ɉȵ ) )= [ (ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2((f1(Ɉȵ))c2]c2 = [( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 (f1(Ɉȵ)c2))]c2 by Corollary 2.8.

Therefore,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(f1 ( Ɉȵ ) )=[(ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(f1(Ɉȵ)c2))]c21[f1 ( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2((Ɉȵ)c2))]c2 by using part (ii) and Theorem 2.2.iv.

Hence, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(f1 ( Ɉȵ))1f1 [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2((Ɉȵ)c2)]c2 = f1 ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(Ɉȵ)) by Theorem 5.13.vii.

Conversely, let ȵ be a a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in𝚈. Since, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ). = ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(ȵc2))c2 by Theorem 5.13.

So,f1 (ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ)) = f1 (ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(ȵc2))c2 = [f1(ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(ȵc2)]c2

2 [( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)1(f1(Ҥȵc2)]c2 = ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2(f1(ȵ) .

Therfore,f1( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( ȵ ) )2 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)2 ( f1(Ҥȵ ))

Corollary 6.8:

  • i. if f:ҲYisaneutrosophic crispcontinuous(1,2) function. Then f1( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( ȵ ) )1 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( f1(ȵ )), ȵis a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈.

  • ii. if f1(ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( ȵ ) )1 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( f1(ȵ )), ȵis a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈. Then ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(f1(Ɉȵ))2f1 ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ɉȵ)),andɈȵis a ƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈.

Proof:

  • i. Suppose ȵisaƝՄҪOset in 𝚈. Since, ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( ȵ ) is a ƝՄҪO–𝑠𝑒𝑡 in 𝚈 by Definition 5.1, because of fisaneutrosophic crispcontinuous(1,2)function.So,f1(ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1) (ȵ ) ) is ƝՄҪO– 𝑠𝑒𝑡 in Ҳ.

    Since, f1( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( ȵ ) )1f1(ȵ) by Theorom 5.8 and Corollary 2.5.

    Hence,f1( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( ȵ ) )1 ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 ( f1(ȵ )) by Theorem 5.10.

  • ii. Let Ɉȵ be a ƝՄҪҪset in 𝚈.

    Since, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2 ( Ɉȵ ) = [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1(Ɉȵc2)]c2 by Theorem 5.13.viii.

    So, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(f1 ( Ɉȵ ) )= [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1((f1(Ɉȵ))c2]c2 = [( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1 (f1(Ɉȵ)c2))]c2 by Corollary 2.8.

    Thus,ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(f1 ( Ɉȵ ) )=[(ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1(f1(Ɉȵ)c2))]c22[f1 ( ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1((Ɉȵ)c2))]c2 by using part (i) and Theorem 2.2.iii.

    Hence, ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(f1 ( Ɉȵ))2f1 [ ƝՄҪԼȵȶ(1,2)1((Ɉȵ)c2)]c2 = f1 ( ƝՄҪҪԼ(1,2)2(Ɉȵ)) by Theorem 5.13.viii.

7. Conclusions

We succeeded in constructing a neutrosophic crisp topological space in which the intersection is fixed as Type I, the union as Type II, and the complement as Type II for all kinds of neutrosophic crisp families while considering the two kinds of inclusion. Within this framework, we defined two kinds of closure and interior for a neutrosophic crisp set, as well as continuity. We also established the relations, results, and theorems that are valid in general topology, while providing examples of those that are invalid, many of which we confirmed to be invalid.

In light of this, future work will study other general topological concepts—such as connectedness, compactness, and the separation axioms—on the neutrosophic crisp topological space that we constructed.
