Let (X, ) be a topological space equipped with a partial order ≦ and let C (≦) denote the continuous increasing functions mapping X into R (a function f : XR is increasing provided f(x)f(y) whenever x ≦ y) Then (X,, ≦) is an N-space (in the terminology of [16], a completely regular order space) provided is the weak topology of C (≦) and if xy is false, then there is an fC (≦) such that f(y) < f(x). L. Nachbin's introduction of N-spaces was perspicacious, for these spaces now find application in a wide spectrum of mathematics.
