A space is H(i) [R(i)] if every open [regular] filter base has a cluster point and H(ii) [R(ii)] if every open [regular] filter base with a unique cluster point converges. This terminology is due to C. T. Scarborough and A. H. Stone [11]; H(i) spaces have been studied as quasi-H-closed spaces in [10] and as generalized absolutely closed spaces in [6]. Hausdorff H(i) [H(ii)] spaces are called H-closed [minimal Hausdorff] and regular T1 R(i) [R(ii)] spaces are called R-closed [minimal regular]. For a space X, 2X is the set of all non-empty closed subsets of X with the finite topology [8]. The present study was motivated by the longstanding problem of whether or not a T3 space with every closed subset R-closed is compact, and also by the well-known result ([8] and [14]) that X is compact if and only if 2X is compact.
