Abstract
A continuous map X f→ Y and its extension expτ X f→ expτ Y are considered (expτ X is the hyperspace (endowed with a topology τ) of the topological space X, ḟ(F) = [f (F)]Y (the closure of a set f(F) in the space Y)). A necessary and sufficient condition (a modification of the Harris’ (WO) condition) of continuity of the map ḟ in the cases when τ = τLF (the locally finite topology) and τ = τF (the Fell topology) is found. When X and Y are metrizable spaces the topology τinf, as the infimum of all Hausdorff metric topologies, is considered. A sufficient condition (TUC) condition) of continuity of the map ḟ in the case when τ = τinf is found. It is also shown, that this condition is necessary, when the space Y is locally compact and second countable. The results are commented from the point of view of the category theory.
