Abstract

Using a gradation of openness in a (Chang fuzzy) I-topological space, we introduce degrees of compactness that we call α-fuzzy compactness (where α belongs to the unit interval), so extending the concept of compactness due to C. L. Chang. We obtain a Baire category theorem for α-locally compact spaces and construct a one-point α-fuzzy compactification of an I-topological space.
