open access: yesProceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1953
In a topological space the closure of the union of two sets is the union of the closures. We here consider the question when the closure of the intersection of two sets is the intersection of the closures. We use the technique of uniform spaces. All uniform spaces mentioned are understood to be To-spaces.
