Abstract

A topological boundedness notion is studied, which is proved to be productive. Classical theorems on compactness of Tychonoff, Alexander and Obreanu are generalized. A boundedness operator is defined and studied. Finally, a classification of all topological spaces is obtained according to boundedness criteria.
