Abstract

Recently the class of strongly faintly $\alpha$-continuous functions between topological spaces has been defined and studied in some detail. We consider this class of functions from the perspective of change(s) of topology. In particular, we conclude that each member of this class of functions belongs the usual class of continuous functions between topological spaces when the domain and codomain of the function in question have been retopologized appropriately. Some consequences of this fact are considered in this paper.
