An Operational Characterization of Soft Topologies by Crisp Topologies

This paper contributes to the expanding literature on soft topology. We first prove that soft topologies can be characterized by crisp topologies. This takes advantage of two connected constructions that produce soft topologies from crisp topologies and vice versa. Both constructions are explicit an...
