Abstract
In the previous studies, the notion of antisymmetrically connected
T0-quasi-metric space is described as a type of the connectivity in the
framework of asymmetric topology. Actually, the theory of antisymmetric
connectedness was established in terms of graph theory, as the natural
counterpart of the connected complementary graph. In this paper, some
significant properties of antisymmetrically connected T0-quasi-metric spaces
are presented. Accordingly, we study some different aspects of the theory of
antisymmetric connectedness in terms of asymmetric norms which associate the
theory of quasi-metrics with functional analysis. In the light of this
approach, antisymmetrically connected T0-quasi-metric spaces are
investigated and characterized for the first time in the theory of
asymmetrically normed real vector spaces. Besides these, many further
observations about the antisymmetric connectedness are dealt with especially
in the sense of their combinations such as products and unions through
various theorems and examples in the context of T0-quasi-metrics. Also, we
examine the question of under what kind of quasimetric mapping antisymmetric
connectedness will be preserved.
