Almost-continuous path connected spaces

M. K. Singal and Asha Rani Singal have defined an almost-continuous function f:X→Y to be one in which for each x∈X and each regular-open set V containing f(x), there exists an open U containing x such that f(U)⊂V. A space Y may now be defined to be almost-continuous path connected if for each y0,y1∈...
