Abstract

      This research explores the hierarchical structure among different generalizations of open sets and compactness within topological spaces. Specifically, it considers α-open, semi-open, pre-open, and regular open sets, along with their associated compactness concepts, including α- compactness, semi-compactness, strong compactness, and regular compactness. The study establishes several inclusion relations among these notions, supported by formal proofs and illustrative examples demonstrating that these implications are generally not reversible. Our results contribute to a deeper structural understanding of generalized topological properties and their interconnections, providing a clear reference for further research in general topology and related fields.
