Every space is a path component space

Douglas Harris

Vol. 91 (1980), No. 1, 95–104
Abstract

It is shown that every topological space appears as quotient of a paracompact Hausdorff space in a very natural way: as the space of path components. This means that the “pathology” of closure operators in non-Hausdorff spaces appears as “pathology” of path components in spaces which have “nice” closure operators.
