The covering properties considered in this work are orthocompactness, metacompactness and paracompactness; some generalizations of orthocompactness are also defined and studied.78 leaveBTDapplication/pdfenIn CopyrightLD5655.V856 1978.J85Topological spacesCovering properties and quasi-uniformities of topological spacesDissertationhttp://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-03132010-020038/
