1. Introduction In [1], Csaszar introduced the notions of generalized neighborhood systems and generalized topological spaces. He also introduced the notions of continuous functions and associated interior and closure operators on generalized neighborhood systems and generalized topological spaces. In the same paper he investigated characterizations of generalized continuous functions ( = (g; g0 )-continuous functions). A subfamily g of the power set P (X ) of a nonempty set X is called a generalized topology [1] on X if and only if ; 2 g and Gi 2 g for i 2 I 6= ; implies G = [ Gi 2 g. We call the pair (X; g) a generalized topological space i2I (brie y GTS) on X . The members of g are called g-open sets [1] and the complement of a g-open set is called a g-closed set. The generalized closure of a set S of X , denoted by g Cl(A), is the intersection of all g-closed sets containing A and the generalized interior of A, denoted by g Int(A), is the union of g-open sets included in A. The concept of ideals in topological spaces has been introduced and studied by Kuratowski [7] and Vaidyanathasamy [9]. An ideal I on a topological space (X; ) is a nonempty collection of subsets of X which satis es (i) A 2 I and B A implies B 2 I and (ii) A 2 I and B 2 I implies A [ B 2 I . The aim of this paper is to introduced and characterized the concepts of g--I -open sets and their related notions in ideal generalized topological spaces. 2.

de ned as follows: for A X , Ag (g; I ) = fx 2 X : A \ U 2= I for every g -open set containing xg. When there is no ambiguity, we will write Ag for Ag (g; I ). De nition 2.2. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS. The set operator g Cl is called a g--closure and is denoted as g Cl (A) = A [ Ag for A X . We will denote by g (I ; g) the generalized topology generated by g Cl , that is g (I ; g) = fU X : g Cl (X nU ) = X nU g. Clearly, g (I ; g) is ner than g. The elements of g (I ; g) are called g--open sets and the complement of g--open set is a called g--closed set. Also, g Int (A) denotes the interior of A in g (I ).
De nition 2.3. A subset A of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is said to be (i) g-R-I -open [2] if A = g Int(g Cl (A)). (ii) g-semi-I -open [4] if A g Cl (g Int(A)). (iii) g-pre-I -open [3] if A g Int(g Cl (A)). (iv) g-b-I -open [5] if A g Int(g Cl (A)) [ g Cl (g Int(A)) . (v) g- -I -open [6] if A g Cl(g Int(g Cl (A))). (vi) g--I -open [2] if g Int(g Cl (A)) g Cl (g Int(A)). The complement of a g-pre-I -open (resp. g-semi-I -open, g- -I -open) set is called a g-pre-I -closed (resp. g-semi-I -closed, g- -I -closed) set. Lemma 2.4. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS. Then (i) A subset A is g-pre-I -closed if and only if g Cl(g Int (A)) A
[3];
(ii) A subset A is g- -I -closed if and only if g Int(g Cl(g Int (A))) A [6].
De nition 2.5. The union of all g-pre-I -open (resp. g-semi-I -open) sets of (X; g; I ) containing A is called the g -pre-I -interior [3] (resp. g semi-I -interior [4]) of A and is denote by gpI Int(A) (resp. gsI Int(A)). De nition 2.6. The intersection of all g-pre-I -closed (resp. g-semiI -closed) sets of (X; g; I ) contained in A is called the g-pre-I -closure [3] (resp. g-semi-I -closure [4]) of A and is denote by gpI Cl(A) (resp. gsI Cl(A)). Lemma 2.7. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS and A X . Then the following hold.
gsI Int(A) = A \ g Cl (g Int(A)). gsI Cl(A) = A [ g Int (g Cl(A)). gpI Int(A) = A \ g Int(g Cl (A)). gpI Cl(A) = A [ g Cl(g Int (A)). De nition 2.8. A function f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) is said to be (i) (g; g0 )-pre-I -continuous [3] if the inverse image of every g0 -open set of Y is g -pre-I -open in X .

(ii) (g; g0 )-semi-I -continuous [4] if the inverse image of every g0 open set of Y is g -semi-I -open in X .
(iii) (g; g0 )-b-I -continuous [5] if the inverse image of every g0 -open set of Y is g -b-I -open in X .
(iv) (g; g0 )- -I -continuous [6] if the inverse image of every g0 -open set of Y is g - -I -open in X .
(v) (g; g0 )--I -continuous [4] if the inverse image of every g0 -open set of Y is g - -I -open in X .
(vi) strongly (g; g0 )- -I -continuous [6] if the inverse image of every g0 -open set of Y is strongly g- -I -open in X .
3. (g; g0 )--I -open sets De nition 3.1. A subset A of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is said to be g--I open if and only if A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). The family of all g --I -open sets of (X; g; I ) is denoted by I O(X; g ). Also, The family of all g --I -open sets of (X; g; I ) containing x is denoted by I O(X; g; x). Remark 3.2. Let I and J be two ideals on (X; g). If I J , then J O(X; g) I O(X; g0 ). Proposition 3.3. (i) Every g-open set is g--I -open. (ii) Every g--I -open set is g-semi-I -open. (iii) Every g--I -open set is g-pre-I -open. Proof. The proof follows from the de nitions. Corollary 3.4. (i) Every g--I -open set is g-b-I -open. (ii) Every g--I -open set is g- -I -open. The following examples show that the converses of Proposition 3.3 is not true in general. Example 3.5. Let X = fa; b; cg g = f;; fa; bg; fb; cg; X g and I = f;g. Then the set fa; cg is g --I -open but not g -open. Also, the set fbg is g-pre-I -open but not g--I -open.
Example 3.6. Let X = fa; b; cg g = f;; fag; fbg; fa; bg; X g and I = f;; fagg. Then the set fb; cg is g-semi-I -open but not g--I -open. Proposition 3.7. Let A be a subset of an IGTS (X; g; I ). If B is a g-semi-I -open set of X such that B A g Int(g Cl (B )), then A is a g --I -open set of X . Proof. Since B is a g -semi-I -open set of X , we have B g Cl (g Int(B )). Thus, A g Int(g Cl (B )) g Int(g Cl (g Cl (g Int(B )))) = g Int(g Cl (g Int(B ))) g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))), and so A is a g--I -open set of X . Proposition 3.8. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS. Then a subset of X is g--I -open if and only if it is both g- -I -open and g-pre-I -open.

Let A be a g--I -open set. Since every g--I -open set is g-semiI -open, by Proposition 3.3 A is g--I -open. Now we prove that A g Int(g Cl (A)). Since A is a g--I -open, we have A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) g Int(g Cl (A)). Hence A is g-pre-I -open. Conversely, let A be a g- -I -open and g-pre-I -open set. Then we have g Int(g Cl (A)) g Cl (g Int(A)) and hence g Int(g Cl (A)) g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). Since A is g-pre-I -open, we have A g Int(g Cl (A)). Therefore, we obtain that A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))); hence A is g--I -open. Proof.
Theorem 3.9. A subset A is g--I -open if and only if it is g-semi-I open and g -pre-I -open. Proof. Let A be g -semi-I -open and g -pre-I -open. Then, A g Int(g Cl (A)) g Int(g Cl (g Cl (g Int(A)))) = g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). This shows that A is g--I -open. The converse is obvious. Corollary 3.10. The following properties are equivalent for subsets of an IGTS (X; g; I ): (i) Every g-pre-I -open set is g-semi-I -open. (ii) A subset A of X is g--I -open if and only if it is g-pre-I -open. Corollary 3.11. The following properties are equivalent for subsets of an IGTS (X; g; I ): (i) Every g-semi-I -open set is g-pre-I -open. (ii) A subset A of X is g--I -open if and only if it is g-semi-I -open. Proposition 3.12. Let A be a subset of an IGTS (X; g; I ). If A is g-pre-I -closed and g--I -open, then it is g-open. Proof. Suppose A is g -pre-I -closed and g --I -open. Then by Lemma 2.4 g Cl(g Int (A)) A and A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). Now g Cl(g Int(A)) g Cl(g Int(A)) g Cl(g Int (A)) A and so A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A)) A g Int(A). Therefore, A is g-open. Lemma 3.13. [2] If A is any subset of an IGTS (X; g; I ), then g Int(g Cl (A)) is g -R-I -open. Proposition 3.14. Let A be a subset of an IGTS (X; g; I ). If A is g--I -open and g- -I -closed, then it is g-R-I -open. Proof. Let A be g --I -open and g - -I -closed. We have by Lemma 2.4, A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) and g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) g Int(g Cl(g Int (A))) A; hence A = g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). Thus, by Lemma 3.13, A is g-R-
I -open.
Lemma 3.15. Let A be a subset of an IGTS (X; g; I ). Then A is g-open and g-closed if and only if it is g--I -open and g-pre-I -closed. Proof. Let A be g --I -open and g -pre-I -closed. We have A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) and g Cl (g Int(A)) A and hence A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) g Int(g Cl(g Int (A))) g Cl(g Int (A)) A. Thus, A = g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) = g Cl(g Int (A)); hence A is g-open and g-closed.

Remark 3.16. The intersection of two g--I -open sets need not be g--I -open in general. Let (X; g; I ) as in Example 3.5. Then the sets fa; cg and fb; cg are g--I -open sets of (X; g; I ) but their intersection fcg is not an g--I -open set of (X; g; I ). Theorem 3.17. If fA g2 be a family of g--I -open sets in (X; g; I ), S then A is g--I -open in (X; g; I ). 2
Since fA : 2 g g-I O(X ), then A g Int(g Cl (g Int(A ))) for every 2 . Thus, [2 A [2 g Int(g Cl (g Int(A ))) g Int(g Cl ([2 g Int(A )) = g Int(g Cl (g Int([2 A )). Therefore, we obtain [2 A g Int(g Cl (g Int([2 A )). Hence any union of g--I -open sets is g--I -open. De nition 3.18. In an IGTS (X; g; I ), A X is said to be g--I Proof.
closed if X nA is g --I -open in X . The family of all g --I -closed sets of (X; g; I ) is denoted by I C (X; g ).
Theorem 3.19. If A is a g--I -closed set in an IGTS (X; g; I ) if and only if g Cl(g Int (g Cl(A))) A. Proof.
The proof follows from the de nitions.
Proof.
The proof follows from the de nitions.
Theorem 3.20. If A is a g--I -closed set in an IGTS (X; g; I ), then g Cl(g Int(g Cl (A))) A. Proof. Since A 2 I C (X; g ), X nA 2 I O(X; g ). Hence, X nA g Int(g Cl (g Int(X nA)) g Int(g Cl(g Int(X nA))) = X ng Cl(g Int(g Cl(A))) X n(g Cl(g Int(g Cl (A))). Therefore, we obtain g Cl(g Int(g Cl (A)) A. Proposition 3.21. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS. If a subset of X is g- I -closed and g--I -open, then it is g--I -closed. Theorem 3.22. Arbitrary intersection of g--I -closed sets is always g--I -closed.
Follows from Theorems 3.17 and 3.20. De nition 3.23. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS, S a subset of X and x be Proof.

Theorem 3.24. Let A and B be subsets of (X; g; I ). Then the following properties hold: (i) gI Int(A) =
[fT : T A and A 2 I O(X; g)g.

(ii) gI Int(A) is the largest g--I -open subset of X contained in
A. A is g--I -open if and only if A = gI Int(A). gI Int(gI Int(A)) = gI Int(A). If A B , then gI Int(A) gI Int(B ). gI Int(A \ B ) = gI Int(A) \ gI Int(B ). gI Int(A [ B ) gI Int(A) [ gI Int(B ). Proof. (i). Let x 2 [fT : T A and A 2 I O(X; g )g. Then, there exists T 2 I O(X; g; x) such that x 2 T A and hence x 2 gI Int(A). This shows that [fT : T A and A 2 I O(X; g)g gI Int(A). For the reverse inclusion, let x 2 gI Int(A). Then there exists T 2 I O(X; g; x) such that x 2 T A. we obtain x 2 [fT : T A and A 2 I O(X; g)g. This shows that gI Int(A) [fT : T A and A 2 I O(X; g)g. Therefore, we obtain gI Int(A) = [fT : T A and A 2 I O(X; g)g. The proof of (ii) (v) are obvious. (vi). By (v), we have gI Int(A) gI Int(A [ B ) and gI Int(B ) gI Int(A[B ). Then we obtain gI Int(A) [ gI Int(B ) gI Int(A[ B ) Since gI Int(A) A and gI Int(B ) B , we obtain gI Int(A [ B ) gI Int(A) [ gI Int(B ). It follows that gI Int(A \ B ) = gI Int(A) \ gI Int(B ). (vii). Since A \ B A and A \ B B , we have gI Int(A \ B ) gI Int(A) and gI Int(A \ B ) gI Int(B ) . Therefore, gI Int(A) [ gI Int(B ) gI Int(A \ B ). Theorem 3.25. If (X; g; I ) is an IGTS, then gI Int(A) = A \ g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) holds for every subset A of X . Proof. Since A\g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) = g Int(g Int(g Cl (g Int(A)))) = g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))\(g Int(g Cl (g Int(A)))) g Int(g Cl (g Int(A)\ g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))))) = g Int(g Cl (g Int(A \ g Int(g Cl (g Int(A)))))), A \ g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) is an g--I -open set contained in A and so A \ g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) gI Int(A). Since g-I Int(A) is g--I -open, g-I Int(A) g Int(g Cl (g Int(gI Int(A)))) g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))) and so gI Int(A) A \ g Int(g Cl (Int(A))). Hence gI Int(A) = A \ Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). Theorem 3.26. If (X; g; I ) is an IGTS, then gI Cl(A) = A\g Cl(g Int (g Cl(A))) holds for every subset A of X .

Since every g--I -open set is g-pre-I -open, gI Int(A) gpI Int(A). By Theorem 3.25, gI Int(A) = A \ g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). Since A is g -I -open, gI Int(A) A\g Int(g Int(g Cl (A))) = A\g Int(g Cl (A)) =

gpI Int(A) by Lemma 2.7 and so gI Int(A) gpI Int(A). Therefore, gI Int(A) = gpI Int(A). De nition 3.28. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS, S a subset of X and x be a point of X . Then (i) x is called an g--I -cluster point of S if V \ S 6= ; for every V 2 I O(X; g; x). (ii) the set of all g--I -cluster points of S is called g--I -closure of S and is denoted by gI Cl(S ). Theorem 3.29. Let A and B be subsets of (X; g; I ). Then the following properties hold: (i) g-I Cl(A) = \fF : A F and F 2 I C (X; g)g. (ii) gI Cl(A) is the smallest g--I -closed subset of X containing A. (iii) A is g--I -closed if and only if A = gI Cl(A). (iv) gI Cl(gI Cl(A) = gI Cl(A). (v) If A B , then gI Cl(A) gI Cl(B ). (vi) gI Cl(A [ B ) = gI Cl(A) [ gI Cl(B ). (vii) gI Cl(A \ B ) gI Cl(A) \ gI Cl(B ). Proof. (i).
We shall only proof (i) as the proofs of the other statements are obvious. Suppose that x 2= gI Cl(A). Then there exists V 2 I O(X; g)g such that V \ A 6= ;. Since X nV is g--I -closed set containing A and x 2= X nV , we obtain x 2= \fF : A F and F 2 I C (X; g)g. Then there exists F 2 I C (X; g) such that A F and x 2= F . Since X nV is g--I -closed set containing x, we obtain (X nF ) \ A = ;. This shows that x 2= gI Cl(A). Therefore, we obtain gI Cl(A) = \fF : A F and F 2 I C (X; g)g.
Theorem 3.30. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS and A X . A point x 2 gI Cl(A) if and only if U \ A 6= ; for every U 2 I O(X; g; x). Proof. Suppose that x 2 gI Cl(A). We shall show that U \ A = 6 ; for every U 2 I O(X; g; x). Suppose that there exists U 2 I O(X; g; x) such that U \ A = ;. Then A X nU and X nU is g--I -closed. since A X nU , gI Cl(A) gI Cl(X nU ). Since x 2 gI Cl(A), we have x 2 gI Cl(X nU ). Since X nU is g--I -closed, we have x 2 X nU ; hence x 2= U , which is a contradiction that x 2 U . Therefore, U \ A = 6 ;. Conversely, suppose that U \ A =6 ; for every U 2 I O(X; g; x). We shall show that x 2 gI Cl(A). Suppose that x 2= gI Cl(A). Then there exists U 2 I O(X; g; x) such that U \ A = ;. This is a contradiction to U \ A = 6 ;; hence x 2 gI Cl(A). Theorem 3.31. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS and A X . Then the following propeties hold:
(i) gI Int(X nA) = X ngI Cl(A);

(i) gI Cl(X nA) = X ngI Int(A). Proof. (i). Let x 2 X ngI Cl(A). Then, there exists V 2 I O(X; g; x) such that V \ A 6= ;; hence we obtain x 2 gI Int(X nA). This shows that X ngI Cl(A) g-I Int(X nA). Let x 2 gI Int(X nA). Since gI Int(X nA) \ A = ;, we obtain x 2= gI Cl(A); hence x 2 X ngI Cl(A). Therefore, we obtain gI Int(X nA) = X nI Cl(A). (ii). Follows from (i). De nition 3.32. A subset Bx of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is said to be an
g--I -neighbourhood of a point x 2 X if there exists an g--I -open set U such that x 2 U Bx . Theorem 3.33. A subset of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is g--I -open if and only if it is an g --I -neighbourhood of each of its points. Proof. Let G be an g --I -open set of X . Then by de nition, it is clear that G is an g--I -neighbourhood of each of its points, since for every x 2 G, x 2 G G and G is g--I -open. Conversely, suppose G is an g--I -neighbourhood of each of its points. Then for each S x 2 G, there exists Sx 2 I O(X; g) such that Sx G. Then G = fSx : x 2 Gg. Since each Sx is g--I -open, G is g--I -open in (X; g; I ).
4. (g; g0 )--I -continuous functions De nition 4.1. A function f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) is said to be (g; g0 )-

Theorem 4.4. A function f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) is (g; g0 )--I -continuous if and only if it is (g; g 0 )-semi-I -continuous and (g; g 0 )-pre-I -continuous.

Then g0 Int(B ) = B and f 1 (B )nf 1 (g0 Int(B )) gI Int(f 1(B )). Hence we have f 1(B ) = gI Int(f 1(B )). This shows that f 1 (B ) is g--I -open in X . (iii) ) (vii): Let B be any subset os Y . Since g0 Cl(B ) is g0 -closed in Y , by (iii), f 1 (g0 Cl(B )) is g--I -closed and X nf 1 (g0 Cl(B )) is g-I -open. Then X nf 1(g0 Cl(B )) g Int(g Cl(g Int(f 1(g0 Cl(B))))) = X ng Cl(g Int (g Cl(f 1 (g0 Cl(B ))))). Hence we obtain g Cl(g Int (g Cl(f 1 (B )))) f 1 (g0 Cl(B )). (vii) ) (viii): Let A be any ubset of X . By(iv), we have g Cl(g Int (g Cl(A)) g Cl(g Int (g Cl(f 1 (f (A))))) f 1 (g0 Cl(f (A))) and hence f (g Cl(g Int (g Cl(A)))) g0 Cl(f (A)).

(viii) ) (i): Let V 2 g0 . Then by (v), f (g Cl(g Int (g Cl(f 1 (Y nV ))))) g0 Cl(f (f 1 (Y nV ))) g0 Cl(Y nV ) = Y nV . Therefore, we have g Cl(g Int (g Cl(f 1 (Y nV )))) f 1 (Y nV ) X nf 1 (V ). Consequently, we obtain f 1 (V ) g Int(g Cl (g Int(f 1 (V )))). This shows that f 1 (V ) is -I -open. Thus, f is -I -continuous. Corollary 4.6. Let f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ; I ) be an g--I -continuous function, then (i) f (g Cl (U )) g0 Cl(f (U )) for every g-pre-I -open set U of X , (ii) g Cl (f 1 (V )) f 1 (g0 Cl(V )) for every g0 -pre-I -open set V of Y. Proof. (1). Let U be any g -pre-I -open set of X , then U g Int(g Cl (U )). Therefore, by Theorem 4.5, we have f (g Cl (U )) f (g Cl(U )) f (g Cl(g Int(g Cl (U )))) f (g Cl(g Int (g Cl(U )))) g0 Cl(f (U )). (2). Let V be any g0 -pre-I -open set of Y . By Theorem 4.5, g Cl (f 1 (V )) g Cl(f 1 (V )) g Cl(f (g0 Int(g0 Cl (V )))) g Cl(g Int(g Cl (g Int(f 1 (g0 Int(g0 Cl( (V )))))))) g Cl(g Int(g Cl(f 1(g0 Int(g0 Cl((V ))))))) f 1(g0 Cl(g0 Int(g0 Cl( V )))) f 1 (g0 Cl(V )).
Theorem 4.7. Let f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) be a (g; g0 )--I -continuous function. Then for each subset V of Y , f 1 (g 0 Int(V )) g Cl (f 1 (V )). Proof. Let V be any subset of Y . Then g 0 Int(V ) is g 0 -open in Y and so f 1 (g0 Int(V )) is g--I -open in X . Hence f 1 (g0 Int(V )) g Int(g Cl (g Int(f 1 (g0 Int(V ))))) g Cl (f 1 (V )). Theorem 4.8. Let f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) be a bijective. Then f is (g; g0 )--I -continuous if and only if g0 Int(f (U )) f (gI Int(U )) for each subset U of X . Proof. Let U be any subset of X . Then by Theorem 4.5, f 1 (g 0 Int(f (U ))) gI Int(f 1(f (U ))). Since f is bijection, g0 Int(f (U )) = f (f 1(g0 Int(f (U ))) f (gI Int(U )). Conversely, let V be any subset of Y . Then g0 Int(f (f 1 (V ))) f (gI Int(f 1 (V ))). Since f is bijection, g0 Int(V ) = g0 Int(f (f 1 (V ))) f (gI Int(f 1 (V ))); hence f 1 (g0 Int(V ) gI Int(f 1 (V )). Therefore, by Theorem 4.5, f is (g; g0 )--I -continuous. De nition 4.9. A subset K of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is said to be g-I -compact relative to X , if for every cover fU : 2 g of K by g--SI -open sets of X , there exists a nite subset 0 of such that K n fU : 2 0 g 2 I . The space (X; g; I ) is said to be g--I compact if X is g --I -compact subsets of X . De nition 4.10. A subset K of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is said to be countably g --I -compact relative to X , if for every cover fU : 2 g of K by countable gS--I -open sets of X , there exists a nite subset 0 of such that K n fU : 2 0 g 2 I . The space (X; gI ) is said to be countably g --I -compact if X is countable g --I -compact subset of X .

De nition 4.11. A subset K of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is said to be g-I -Lindelof relative to X , if for every cover fU : 2 g of K by g--SI -open sets of X , there exists a nite subset 0 of such that K n fU : 2 0 g 2 I . The space (X; g; I ) is said to be g--I Lindelof if X is g --I -Lindelof subset of X . Lemma 4.12. [8] For any function f : (X; ; I ) ! (Y; ), f (I ) is an ideal on Y . Theorem 4.13. If f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) is a (g; g0 )--I -continuous surjection and (X; g; I ) is g --I -compact,then (Y; g 0 ; f (I )) is g 0 -f (I )compact.
Let fV : 2 g be a g0 -open cover of Y . Then ff 1 (V ) : 2 g is a g--I -open cover hence, there exist a nite subset Sff of1(XV )and 0 of such that X n : 2 0g 2 I . Since f is surjective, S S 1 Y n fV : 2 0 g = f (X n ff (V ) : 2 0 g) 2 I . Therefore, (Y; g0 ; f (I )) is g0 -f (I )-compact. Proof.
The proofs of the next two Theorems follows from that of Theorem 4.13 and therefore we omit them. Theorem 4.14. If f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) is a (g; g0 )--I -continuous surjection and (X; g; I ) is g --I -Lindelof, then (Y; g 0 ; f (I )) is g 0 -f (I )Lindelof.
Theorem 4.15. If f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) is a (g; g0 )--I -continuous surjection and (X; g; I ) is countably g --I -compact, then (Y; g 0 ; f (I )) is countably g 0 -f (I )-compact. De nition 4.16. An GTS (X; g) is said to be g-connected if it cannot be expressed as the union of two nonempty disjoint sets g -open sets. De nition 4.17. An IGTS (X; g; I ) is said to be g--I -connected if it cannot be expressed as the union of two nonempty disjoint g --I -open sets.
Theorem 4.18. Let f : (X; g; I ) ! (Y; g0 ) is (g; g0 )--I -continuous surjection and (X; g; I ) is g --I -connected, then (Y; g 0 ) is g 0 -connected. Proof. Suppose Y is not g 0 -connected, Then Y = A [ B where A \ B = ;, A 6= ;, B 6= ; and A; B 2 g0. Since f is (g; g0)--I -continuous f 1 (A); f 1 (B ) 2 S I O(X; g) such that f 1 (A) 6= ;, f 1 (B ) 6= ; and f 1 (A) \ f 1 (B ) = ; and f 1 (A) [ f 1 (B ) = X , which implies that X is not g--I -connected.

A subset A of (X; g; I ) is said to be g-I -D(; p)-set if A 2 g -I -D(; p) (resp. g -I -D(; s)-set if A 2 g -I -D(; s)) Proposition 5.3. [4] A subset A of an IGTS (X; g; I ) is g-semi-I open if and only if g Cl (A) = g Cl (g Int(A)). Theorem 5.4. For an IGTS (X; g; I ), the relation S I O(X; g) g-I D(; p) holds. Proof. Let A 2 S I O(X; g ). Then by Proposition 5.3, g Cl (A) = g Cl (g Int(A)). Then g Int(g Cl (A)) = g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). We have A \ g Int(g Cl (A)) = A \ g Int(g Cl (g Int(A))). Hence gpI Int(A) = gI Int(A) by Theorem 3.25 and Lemma 2.7. Therefore, A 2 g-I D(; p). The following example shows that the reverse inclusion of Theorem 5.4 is not true in general. Example 5.5. Let X = fa; b; cg g = f;; fag; fbg; fa; bg; X g and I = f;g. Then the set fag 2 g-I -D(; p) but fag 2= S I O(X; g). Theorem 5.6. For an IGTS (X; g; I ), I O(X; g) = P I O(X; g) \ gI -D(; p) holds. Proof. Let A 2 P I O(X; g ) \ g -I -D(; p). Then A = gpI Int(A) and gI Int(A) = gpI Int(A). Hence A = gI Int(A). Therefore, A 2 I O(X; g). Conversely, let A 2 I O(X; g). Then A = gI Int(A) gpI Int(A). But gpI Int(A) A. Therefore, A 2 gpI Int(A) and hence we have A = gI Int(A) = gpI Int(A). Hence A 2 g-I -D(; p). Theorem 5.7. For an IGTS (X; g; I ), I O(X; g) = S I O(X; g) \ gI -D(; s) holds. Proof. The proof is similar to the Theorem 5.6. De nition 5.8. For an IGTS (X; g; I ), we de ne (i) g-I -D(g; ) = fA X : g Int(A) = gI Int(A)g. (ii) g-I -D(g; s) = fA X : g Int(A) = gsI Int(A)g. (iii) g-I -D(g; p) = fA X : g Int(A) = gsI Int(A)g. Theorem 5.9.

(ii) g Int(A) = A \ g Cl (g Int(A)). Proof. (i) ) (ii): Let A 2 g -I -D(g; p).Then we have g Int(A) = gsI Int(A) = A \ g Cl (g Int(A)) by Lemma 2.7. (ii) ) (i): Let g Int(A) = A \ g Cl (g Int(A)). Then by Lemma 2.7, g Int(A) = gsI Int(A). Therefore, A 2 g-I -D(g; p).

Proposition 5.10. For each x 2 (X; g; I ), fxg 2 g-I -D(g; s). Proof. Let x 2 X and fxg 2 g . Then g Int(fxg) = fxg = fxg \ g Cl (fxg) = fxg\ g Cl (g Int(fxg)). Therefore, by Theorem 5.9, fxg 2 g-I -D(g; s). Now, let fxg 2= g. Then g Int(fxg) = ; = fxg \ ; = fxg \ g Cl (g Int(fxg)). Therefore, by Theorem 5.9, fxg 2 g-I -D(g; s). Theorem 5.11.

Theorem 5.12. Let (X; g; I ) be an IGTS and A X . If A 2 g, then A 2 g-I -D(g; ). Proof. Let A 2 g .

For an IGTS (X; g; I ), the following relations hold: (i) g-I -D(g; s) g-I -D(g; ). (ii) g-I -D(g; p) g-I -D(g; ). holds.
Proof. (i). Let A 2 g -I -D(g; s). Then g Int(A) = gsI (A) gI (A). But g Int(A) gI (A) and hence we have g Int(A) = gI (A). Therefore, A 2 g-I -D(g; ). The proof of (ii) is similar to (i).
