In topology and related areas of mathematics, a neighbourhood space is a set X such that for each \( x\in X \) there is an associated neighbourhood system \( {\displaystyle {\mathfrak {R}}_{x}} \) .[1]

A subset O of a neighbourhood space is called open if for every \( {\displaystyle x\in O} \) is a neighbourhood of x. Under this definition the open sets of a neighbourhood space give rise to a topological space. Conversely, every topological space is a neighbourhood space under the usual definition of a neighbourhood in a topological space.[1]
