“…Again, the proof is more direct than those [6] and [5]. Note that there are also various more or less abstract versions of the insertion theorems of Michael and Dowker (see [1], [2], [7] [11]). Our proofs are dierent from all of them.…”
A sucient condition for the strict insertion of a continuous function between two comparable upper and lower semicontinuous functions on a normal space is given. Among immediate corollaries are the classical insertion theorems of Michael and Dowker. Our insertion lemma also provides purely topological proofs of some standard results on closed subsets of normal spaces which normally depend upon uniform convergence of series of continuous functions. We also establish a Tietze-type extension theorem characterizing closed G δ -sets in a normal space.

“…The following definitions are modifications of conditions considered in [10]. A property P defined relative to a real-valued function on a topological space is a γ−property provided that any constant function has property P and provided that the sum of a function with property P and any γ−continuous function also has property P .…”

Necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of lower cut sets are given for the strong insertion of a γ−continuous function between two comparable real-valued functions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
