Abstract

Generalizing usual filter convergence, we introduce stack convergence. This convergence contains nearly each essential concept of generalizing topological and uniform spaces. In particular, the belonging category SCO includes as well the topological spaces as the prenearness spaces. Thus we have solved a problem of Herrlich (1974) and have proved: Convergence contains nearness.
