Abstract

We define a function f:XY to be slightly β-continuous if for every clopen set V of Y, f1(V)Cl(Int(Cl(f1(V)))). We obtain several properties of such a function. Especially, we define the notion of ultra-regularizations of a topology and obtain interesting characterizations of slightly β-continuous functions by using it.
