# Compactly generated spaces and quasi-spaces in topology

## TL;DR

This paper generalizes the concepts of compactly generated spaces and quasi-spaces within enriched category theory, extending classical topological notions to a broader categorical framework.

## Contribution

It introduces a generalized framework for compactly generated spaces and quasi-spaces using enriched categories, including new notions like $ extit{$ ext{C}$-generated spaces}$ and their relations.

## Key findings

- Established a generalized notion of compactly generated spaces.
- Developed a framework for quasi-spaces in enriched categories.
- Analyzed relationships between these generalized spaces.

## Abstract

The notions of compactness and Hausdorff separation for generalized enriched categories allow us, as classically done for the category $\mathsf{Top}$ of topological spaces and continuous functions, to study $\textit{compactly generated spaces}$ and $\textit{quasi-spaces}$ in this setting. Moreover, for a class $\mathcal{C}$ of objects we generalize the notion of $\textit{$\mathcal{C}$-generated spaces}$, from which we derive, for instance, a general concept of $\textit{Alexandroff spaces}$. Furthermore, as done for $\mathsf{Top}$, we also study, in our level of generality, the relationship between compactly generated spaces and quasi-spaces.
