Abstract
Strict extensions of nearness spaces are constructed as spaces of round Cauchy filters. Morita's simple extension is identified as the strict extension generated by Morita-generated filters. Carlson's B-completeness is compared with Herrlich completeness and completeness of Morita T-uniformities. The three completeness concepts are shown to be equivalent in regular nearness spaces.
