Abstract

‎In this paper‎, ‎we are interested in studying subgroups of topologized fundamental groups and their influences on generalized covering maps‎.
‎More precisely‎, ‎we find some relationships between generalized covering subgroups and the other famous subgroups of the fundamental group equipped with the compact-open topology and the whisker topology‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we present some conditions under which generalized coverings‎, ‎semicoverings and coverings are equal.
