A mapping $f:X\\to Y$ is called an $\\mathcal{I}$-covering mapping provided a sequence $\\{y_{n}\\}_{n\\in\\mathbb N}$ is $\\mathcal{I}$-converging to a point $y$ in $Y$, there is a sequence $\\{x_{n}\\}_{n\\in\\mathbb N}$ converging to a point $x$ in $X$ such that $x\\in f^{-1}(y)$ and each $x_n\\in f^{-1}(y_n)$. In this paper we study the spaces with certain $\\mathcal{I}$-$cs$-networks and investigate the characterization of the images of metric spaces under certain $\\mathcal{I}$-covering mappings, which prompts us to discover $\\mathcal{I}$-$csf$-networks. The following main results are obtained: (1) A space $X$ has an $\\mathcal{I}$-$csf$-network if and only if $X$ is a continuous and $\\mathcal{I}$-covering image of a metric space. (2) A space $X$ is an $\\mathcal{I}$-$csf$-countable space if and only if $X$ is a continuous $\\mathcal{I}$-covering and boundary $s$-image of a metric space. (3) A space $X$ has a point-countable $\\mathcal{I}$-$cs$-network if and only if $X$ is a continuous $\\mathcal{I}$-covering and $s$-image of a metric space.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-10-16T14:00:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "54A20", "54B15", "54C08", "54C10", "54D55", "54E20", "54E40", "54E99" ], "keywords": [ "metric space", "covering image", "main results", "covering mapping", "continuous" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
