PurposeRecently, F. Smarandache generalized the Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) and other kinds of sets to neutrosophic sets (NSs) and also defined various notions of neutrosophic topologies on the non‐standard interval. One can expect some relation between the intuitionistic fuzzy topology (IFT) on an IFS and neutrosophic topologies on the non‐standard interval. The purpose of this paper is to show that this is false.Design/methodology/approachThe possible relations between the intuitionistic fuzzzy topology and neutrosophic topologies are studied.FindingsRelations on IFT and neutrosophic topologies.Research limitations/implicationsClearly, the paper is confined to IFSs and NSs.Practical implicationsThe main applications are in the mathematical field.Originality/valueThe paper shows original results on fuzzy sets and topology.
