Abstract

The primary goal is to characterize Locally H-closed spaces (LHC), by conditions on the remainders of their extensions. These spaces are also characterized using subspaces and their extensions as well. Characterizing these classes of spaces using the remainders of the subspaces in their extensions provide characterizations of them in terms of their boundaries. Recently, the authors have proved that these results give necessary and sufficient conditions for the space to be compact A number of equivalences are proved for Hausdorff (Urysohn) [regular] spaces. These results lead to similar characterizations of Locally Urysohn-closed (LUC) as well as Locally regular-closed (LRC) spaces. Some of these equivalent properties generalize a number of existing results on these topics. In the present article it is shown that if X is a Hausdorff LHC space then each closed set is an intersection of regularly open sets as well as each closed set is an intersection of semi-closed neighborhoods. In 1969 Porter and Thomas had shown that in a Hausdorff space a locally H-closed subspace is the intersection of an open set and a closed set. In this article, it is shown that a space X is LHC if and only if every nonempty proper regularly closed subset of X is LHC.
