Abstract
Since the inception of fuzzy set theory (see [73], [51], [16]), the efforts of many researchers were directed to find fuzzy analogues of basic concepts of classical mathematics and to develop corresponding theories. General topology was one of the first fields to which the interest of “fuzzy mathematicians” was focused. Already as soon as in 1968 topological structures on lattices of [0,1]-fuzzy sets were considered by C. L. Chang [5]; C. L. Chang’s ideas for more general lattices were developed by J.A. Goguen [17], B. Hutton [34], [35], S. E. Rodabaugh [46], [48], U. Höhle [21], P. Eklund [9], [10], P. Eklund and W. Gähler [11] et al. However in all these works the fuzziness revealed itself only on the level of the powerset, while the topological structure still remained crisp. In particular, in the Chang-Goguen approach an L-fuzzy topology on set X is a family τ ⊂ L X satisfying natural analogues of the usual axioms of topology. In the sequel, following [30], such family τ will be referred to as an L-topology on a set X, see 3.1.
