Semiregular space

From HandWiki

A semiregular space is a topological space whose regular open sets (sets that equal the interiors of their closures) form a base for the topology.[1]

Properties and examples

Every regular space is semiregular.[1] The converse is not true. For example, the space X=2{0*} with the double origin topology[2] and the Arens square[3] are Hausdorff semiregular spaces that are not regular.

Open subspaces of a semiregular space are semiregular.[4] But arbitrary subspaces, even closed subspaces, need not be semiregular.[4]

The product of an arbitrary family of semiregular spaces is semiregular.[4]

Every topological space may be embedded into a semiregular space.[1]
