Sequential + separable vs sequentially separable and another variation on selective separability

Angelo Bella, Maddalena Bonanzinga, Mikhail Matveev (2013)

Open Mathematics

A space X is sequentially separable if there is a countable D ⊂ X such that every point of X is the limit of a sequence of points from D. Neither “sequential + separable” nor “sequentially separable” implies the other. Some examples of this are presented and some conditions under which one of the two implies the other are discussed. A selective version of sequential separability is also considered.

Set-theoretic constructions of two-point sets

Ben Chad, Robin Knight, Rolf Suabedissen (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A two-point set is a subset of the plane which meets every line in exactly two points. By working in models of set theory other than ZFC, we demonstrate two new constructions of two-point sets. Our first construction shows that in ZFC + CH there exist two-point sets which are contained within the union of a countable collection of concentric circles. Our second construction shows that in certain models of ZF, we can show the existence of two-point sets without explicitly invoking the Axiom of Choice....
