This paper considers fuzzifying topologies, a special case of I-fuzzy topologies (bifuzzy topologies) introduced by Ying [16, (I)]. It investigates topological notions defined by means of regular open sets when these are planted into the frame-work of Ying's fuzzifying topological spaces (in ${\L}$ukasiewwicz fuzzy logic). The concept of fuzzifying nearly compact spaces is introduced and some of its properties are obtained. We use the finite intersection property to give a characterization of fuzzifying nearly compact spaces. Furthermore, we study the image of fuzzifying nearly compact spaces under fuzzifying completely continuous functions, fuzzifying almost continuity and fuzzifying R-map.

For A bounded subset G of a metric Space (X,d) and $\chi \in X$, let $f_{G}$ be the real-valued function on X defined by $f_{G}$($\chi$)=sup{$d (\chi, g)\in:G$}, and $F(G,\chi)$={$z \in X:sup_{g \in G}d(g,z)=sup_{g \in G}d(g,\chi)+d(\chi,z)$}. In this paper we discuss some properties of the map $f_G$ and of the set $ F(G, \chi)$ in convex metric spaces. A sufficient condition for an element of a convex metric space X to lie in $ F(G, \chi)$ is also given in this pope.

A diffraction grating is a highly symmetric optical element with a physical structure that is invariant under translational spatial movements. The translational symmetry is reflected in the fields that are diffracted from the grating. Here, we introduce a plane-parallel mirror pair onto the grating, which translates the fields through double reflections, and we describe a method of exploiting the symmetry to enhance the spectral resolution of a diffraction grating beyond the limit that is set by the number of grooves. The mirror pair creates another virtual grating beside the original one, effectively doubling the number of grooves. Addition of more mirror pairs can further increase the effective number of grooves despite the increased complexity and difficulty of experimental implementation. We experimentally demonstrate the spectral linewidth reduction by a factor of four in a neon fluorescence spectrum. Even though the geometrical restriction on the mirror deployment limits our method to a certain range of the whole spectrum, as a practical application example, a bulky spectrometer that is nearly empty inside can be made compact without sacrificing the resolution.
