In many cases Lattice Theory has proven itself to be useful in the study of the totality of mathematical systems of a given type. In this paper we shall continue one of such studies by investigating further the lattice of all topologies on a given set S. A considerable amount of research has been done in this field (1; 2; 3; 5; 6). This research, besides satisfying the intrinsic interest in the lattice theoretic properties of this lattice, has aided the study of interconnections of different properties of point set topologies.
