In relation to the classification of finite topological spaces the paper [17] studied various properties of finite topological spaces. Indeed, the study of future internet system can be very related to that of locally finite topological spaces with some order structures such as preorder, partial order, pretopology, Alexandroff topological structure and so forth. The paper generalizes the results from [17] so that the paper can enlarge topological and homotopic properties suggested in the category of finite topological spaces into those in the category of locally finite topological spaces including ALF spaces.

In this paper, we show a necessary and sufficient condition for QHC spaces to be S-closed. T. Thomson introduced S-closed spaces in [2]. A topological space X is said to be S-closed if every semi-open cover of X admits a finite subfamily such that the closures of whose members cover the space, where a set A is semi-open if and only if there exists an open set U such that U.contnd.A.contnd.Cl U. A topological space X is quasi-H-closed (denote QHC) if every open cover has a finite subfamily whose closures cover the space. If a topological space X is Hausdorff and QHC, then X is H-closed. It is obvious that every S-closed space is QHC but the converse is not true [2]. In [1], Cameron proved that an extremally disconnected QHC space is S-closed. But S-closed spaces are not necessarily extremally disconnected. Therefore we want to find a necessary and sufficient condition for QHC spaces to be S-closed. A topological space X is said to be semi-locally S-closed if each point of X has a S-closed open neighborhood. Of course, a locally S-closed space is semi-locally S-closed.
