Abstract

We introduce a new class of mappings called quasi- 𝜔 -confluent maps, and we study the relation between these mappings, and some other forms of confluent maps. Moreover, we prove several results about some operations on quasi- 𝜔 -confluent mappings such as: composition, factorization, pullbacks, and products.
