Spaces with large relative extent

Yan-Kui Song (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In this paper, we prove the following statements: (1) For every regular uncountable cardinal κ , there exist a Tychonoff space X and Y a subspace of X such that Y is both relatively absolute star-Lindelöf and relative property (a) in X and e ( Y , X ) κ , but Y is not strongly relative star-Lindelöf in X and X is not star-Lindelöf. (2) There exist a Tychonoff space X and a subspace Y of X such that Y is strongly relative star-Lindelöf in X (hence, relative star-Lindelöf), but Y is not absolutely relative star-Lindelöf...

The Arkhangel’skiĭ–Tall problem: a consistent counterexample

Gary Gruenhage, Piotr Koszmider (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We construct a consistent example of a normal locally compact metacompact space which is not paracompact, answering a question of A. V. Arkhangel’skiĭ and F. Tall. An interplay between a tower in P(ω)/Fin, an almost disjoint family in [ ω ] ω , and a version of an (ω,1)-morass forms the core of the proof. A part of the poset which forces the counterexample can be considered a modification of a poset due to Judah and Shelah for obtaining a Q-set by a countable support iteration.

The Arkhangel'skiĭ–Tall problem under Martin’s Axiom

Gary Gruenhage, Piotr Koszmider (1996)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We show that MA σ - c e n t e r e d ( ω 1 ) implies that normal locally compact metacompact spaces are paracompact, and that MA( ω 1 ) implies normal locally compact metalindelöf spaces are paracompact. The latter result answers a question of S. Watson. The first result implies that there is a model of set theory in which all normal locally compact metacompact spaces are paracompact, yet there is a normal locally compact metalindelöf space which is not paracompact.

The Niemytzki plane is ϰ -metrizable

Wojciech Bielas, Andrzej Kucharski, Szymon Plewik (2021)

Mathematica Bohemica

We prove that the Niemytzki plane is ϰ -metrizable and we try to explain the differences between the concepts of a stratifiable space and a ϰ -metrizable space. Also, we give a characterisation of ϰ -metrizable spaces which is modelled on the version described by Chigogidze.
