Abstract

The connectivity in Alexandroff topological spaces is equivalent to the path connectivity. This fact gets some specific properties to Z2, equipped with the Khalimsky topology. This allows a sufficiently precise description of the curves in Z2 and permit to prove a digital Jordan curve theorem in Z2.
