 A continuum is a non-empty compact connected metric space. Given a continuum X let P(X) be the power set of X. We define the following set functions:
T:P(X) to P(X) given by, for each A in P(X), T(A) = X \ { x in X : there is a continuum W such that x is in Int(W) and W does not intersect A}
K:P(X) to P(X) given by, for each A in P(X), K(A) = Intersection{ W : W is a subcontinuum of X and A is in the interior of W}
S:P(X) to P(X) given by, for each A in P(X), S(A) = { x in T(A) : A intersects T(x)}
Some properties and relations between these functions are going to be presented.
