Recent work by Krystock, Porter, and Vermeer has emphasized the importance of the concepts of Katětov spaces and H-sets in the theory of H-closed spaces. These properties are closely related to being the θ-closure of some set and being the adherence of an open filter. This relationship is developed by establishing, among other facts, that an H-closed space in which every closed set is the θ-closure of some set is compact and the θ-closure of a subset of an H-closed space is Katětov and characterizing the open filter adhérences of a space as precisely those sets which are the image of a closed set of the absolute of the space. Also, examples are given of a countable, scattered space which is not Katětov and an H-closed space with an H-closed subspace which is not the θ-closure of any subset of the given space.
