All topologies come from generalized metrics. (English) Zbl 0653.54020

An approach to topological spaces via quasimetrics with values in special semigroups is developed. It is shown that a space is completely regular iff it is induced by a symmetric quasimetric. No historical comments and no references to many similar approaches are given.
