Abstract

We study certain closure operations on Z 2 , with the aim of showing that they can provide a suitable framework for solving problems of digital topology. The Khalimsky topology on Z 2 , which is commonly used as a basic structure in digital topology nowadays, can be obtained as a special case of the closure operations studied. By proving an analogy of the Jordan curve theorem for these closure operations, we show that they provide a convenient model of the real plane and can therefore be used for studying topological and geometric properties of digital images. We also discuss some advantages of the closure operations investigated over the Khalimsky topology.
