Some localized separation axioms and their implications

In a topological spaceX, a T₂-distinct pointx means that for anyyX xy, there exist disjoint open neighbourhoods ofx andy. Similarly, T₀-distinct points and T₁distinct points are defined. In a T_i-distinct point-setA, we assume that eachxA is a T _i -distinct point (i=0, 1, 2). In the present paper some implications of these notions which localize the T _i -separation axioms (i=0, 1, 2) requirement, are studied. Suitable variants of regularity and normality in terms of T₂-distinct points are shown hold in a paracompact space (without the assumption of any separation axioms). Later T₀-distinct points are used to give two characterizations of the R _D -axiom.¹ In the end, some simple results are presented including a condition under which an almost compact set is closed and a result regarding two continuous functions from a topological space into a Hausdorff space is sharpened. A result which relates a limit pointv to an -limit point is stated.
