Abstract

Let $X$ be an arbitrary set. Then a topology $t$ on $X$ is said to be \textit{completely useful} if every upper semicontinuous linear (total) preorder $\precsim$ on $X$ can be represented by an upper semicontinuous real-valued order preserving function. In this paper, appealing, simple and new characterizations of completely useful topologies will be proved, therefore clarifying the structure of such topologies.
