Closed discrete subsets of separable spaces and relative versions of normality, countable paracompactness and property
In this paper we show that a separable space cannot include closed discrete subsets which have the cardinality of the continuum and satisfy relative versions of any of the following topological properties: normality, countable paracompactness and property . It follows that it is consistent that closed discrete subsets of a separable space which are also relatively normal (relatively countably paracompact, relatively ) in are necessarily countable. There are, however, consistent examples of...
