In [S], H. Sharp characterizes each topology on a finite set S = {s1, s2,…sn} with a n×n zero-one matrix T = (tij) where tij=1 if and only if . In this paper we seek matrix characterizations of certain topological properties of finite spaces. Such characterizations will provide purely mechanical ways of determining if a space has a certain topological property.
