Extract

In [8,9] Jayne and Rogers studied piece-wise closed maps and ℱσ maps between metric spaces. A map f of a metric space X into a metric space Y is said to be an ℱσ map if: (a) f maps ℱσ-sets in X to ℱσ-sets in Y; and (b) f1 maps ℱσ-sets in Y back to ℱσ-sets in X. A map fof a metric space X into a metric space Y is said to be piece-wise closed if:it is possible to find a sequence X1, X2,… of closed sets in X, with with each setf(Xi), i ≥ 1, closed in Y, and with the restriction offto each Xi, a closed map (i.e., a continuous map that maps closed sets to closed sets).
