Abstract The fundamental concept of Efremoviˇc proximity space has been introduced by Efremoviˇc [10]. In addition, Leader [27, 28] and Lodato [29, 30] have worked with weaker axioms than those of Efremoviˇc proximity space enabling them to introduce an arbitrary topology on the underlying set. Furthermore, proximity relations are useful in solving problems based on human perception [40] that arise in areas such as image analysis [20]. The notion of ideal topological spaces was first studied by Kuratowski [26] and Vaidyanathaswamy [63, 64]. Compatibility of the topology with an ideal I was first defined by Njastad [36]. In 1990, Jankovic and Hamlett [24] investigated further properties of ideal topological spaces. In 1999, Molodtsov [33] proposed the novel concept of soft set theory, which provides a completely new approach for modeling vagueness and uncertainty. Soft set theory has a rich potential for applications in several directions, few of which were shown by Molodtsov in [33]. After Molodtsov’s work, some different applications of soft sets were studied in Chen et al. [8]. Further theoretical aspects of soft sets were explored by Maji et al. [32]. Also the same authors [31] presented the definition of a fuzzy soft set. The algebraic nature of the soft set has been studied by several researchers. Aktas and Cagman [2] initiated soft groups, and Feng [12] defined soft semirings. Babitha and John [3] defined soft set relations and functions. Yang and Guo [67] introduced kernels and closures of soft set relations. Hazra et al. [23] introduced the notion of basic proximity of soft sets. Also, the same authors [22] proposed the notion of soft proximity. In classical set theory, a set is a well-defined collection of distinct objects. If repeated occurrences of any object is allowed in a set, then a mathematical structure, that is known as multiset (mset [4] or bag [66], for short). Thus, a mset differs from a set in the sense that each element has a multiplicity a natural number not necessarily one that indicates how many times it is a member of the mset. One of the most natural and simplest examples is the mset of prime factors of a positive integer n. The number 400 has the factorization 400 = 2452 which gives the mset {2, 2, 2, 2, 5, 5}. Also, the cubic equation x3 −5x2 +3x+9 = 0 has roots 3, 3 and −1 which give the mset {3, 3, −1}. Classical set theory is a basic concept to represent various situations in mathematical notation where repeated occurrences of elements are not allowed. But in various circumstances repetition of elements become mandatory to the system. For example, a graph with loops, there are many hydrogen atoms, many water molecules, many strands of identical DNA etc. This leads to effectively three possible relations between any two physical objects; they are different, they are the same but separate, or they are coinciding and identical. For example, ammonia NH3, with three hydrogen atoms, say H, H and H, and one nitrogen atom, say N. Clearly H and N are different. However H, H and H are the same but separate, while H and H are coinciding and identical. There are many other examples, for instance, carbon dioxide CO2, sulfuric acid H2SO4, and water H2O etc. The overall aim of this thesis is to increase the stock of knowledge about proximity relations and some related structures. Specifically we aim to: • Introduce new approaches of proximity relations based on ideal notion. • Investigate new approaches of proximity relations based on soft set notion. • Introduce examples of multiset topologies are not tackled before. • Extending the notions of compact, proximity relations, proximal neighborhood and proximity mappings to the multiset context. • Find way to reduce the boundary region of rough sets in the multiset context. • Study the notion of mild continuity in relator spaces and its properties.This Thesis includes six chapters as follow: Chapter 1 has a collection of all basic definitions and notions for further study. In Chapter 2, a new approach of proximity structure based on the ideal notion has been introduced. For I = {φ}, we have the Efremoviˇc proximity structure [10] and for the other types of I, we have many types of proximity structures. Some results on this new approach have obtained and one of the important results: every ∗−normal T1 space is I-proximizable space (Theorem 2.2.5). Moreover, δI−neighborhood in an I−proximity space has been introduced. This provides an alternative description to the study of I−proximity spaces. Furthermore, the operator ∗ on P (X) with respect to an ideal and uniformity U on X has been introduced and various properties of it are investigated. The new generated uniformity via ideal is presented which generated a topology τ ∗(U) finer than the old one. In addition, τ ∗(U) = τδI is proved. The notion of generalized proximity has been introduced via the concept of ideal in the ordinary topology. In addition to that, the notions of I-Leader, I-Pervin, and I-Lodato proximities have been introduced. It is shown that the relation between the topology generated via these proximities and the topology τ ∗ which generated via ideal.

In Chapter 3, a new approaches of proximity and generalized proximity based on the soft set have been introduced. It is shown that every soft T4− space is compatible with a proximity relation on P (X)E. In addition, every soft space is compatible with a Pervin proximity relation on P (X)E. It is also shown that every soft Ro−space is compatible with a Lodato proximity relation on P(X)E. Furthermore, we introduced a new approach of soft proximity structure based on the ideal notion. For I = {φ}, we have the soft proximity structure [22] and for the other types of I, we have many types of soft proximity structures.

Chapter 4, is an attempt to explore the theoretical aspects of msets by extending the notions of compact, proximity relation, proximal neighborhood and proximity mappings to the mset context. Examples of new mset topologies, open msets cover, compact mset and many identities involving the concept mset are introduced. A mset proximity relations and an integral examples of mset proximity are obtained. In addition, a mset topology induced by a mset proximity relation on a mset M and study its principal properties. The concept of mset δ-neighborhood in the mset proximity space which furnishes an alternative approach to the study of mset proximity spaces has been introduced. Furthermore, the mset proximity mappings and its properties are introduced. It should be noted that some results of this chapter are submitted as follow: • A.

Chapter 5 is an attempt to explore a new approach of rough mset to decrease the boundary region and increase the accuracy measure. We show that an alleged properties stated in [16] are invalid in general,by giving a counter-examples. A new approach of ideals in the context of msets on the lattice of all submsets with the order relation as the mset inclusion has been introduced. Properties of mset ideals are studied. The R∗− upper and R∗− lower mset approximations via mset ideals have been mentioned. These definitions are different from Girish et al.’s definitions [16, 18] and more general. If I = {φ}, then our mset approximations coincide with Girish et al.’s mset approximations. So, Girish et al.’s mset approximations are special case of our mset approximations. Moreover, Properties of these mset approximations are studied. Furthermore, an mset topology via this new approach has been introduced. This mset topology is finer than Girish et al.’s one. Moreover, this new approach leads to decrease the boundary region and increase the accuracy measure. In addition, the boundary of a submset decreases as the mset ideal on a nonempty mset M increases. Finally, varied examples are introduced to show the significance of this new approach. It should be noted that some results of this chapter are published as follow: • S. J. John, S. A.

Sz´az [45, 50, 51, 53, 54, 58, 59] on the basic continuity ´ properties of a single relation, and also of a pair of relations, on one relator (generalized uniform) space to another. Furthermore, the notion of mild continuity in relator spaces has been introduced. Moreover, several useful consequences of mild continuity have been mentioned. Finally, the properties of proper, uniform, proximal, topological and paratopological mild continuity have been presented.
