On (transfinite) small inductive dimension of products

Vitalij A. Chatyrko, Konstantin L. Kozlov (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we study the behavior of the (transfinite) small inductive dimension ( t r i n d ) i n d on finite products of topological spaces. In particular we essentially improve Toulmin’s estimation [T] of t r i n d for Cartesian products.

On universality of countable and weak products of sigma hereditarily disconnected spaces

Taras Banakh, Robert Cauty (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Suppose a metrizable separable space Y is sigma hereditarily disconnected, i.e., it is a countable union of hereditarily disconnected subspaces. We prove that the countable power X ω of any subspace X ⊂ Y is not universal for the class ₂ of absolute G δ σ -sets; moreover, if Y is an absolute F σ δ -set, then X ω contains no closed topological copy of the Nagata space = W(I,ℙ); if Y is an absolute G δ -set, then X ω contains no closed copy of the Smirnov space σ = W(I,0). On the other hand, the countable power X ω of...

On universality of finite powers of locally path-connected meager spaces

Taras Banakh, Robert Cauty (2005)

Colloquium Mathematicae

It is shown that for every integer n the (2n+1)th power of any locally path-connected metrizable space of the first Baire category is 𝓐₁[n]-universal, i.e., contains a closed topological copy of each at most n-dimensional metrizable σ-compact space. Also a one-dimensional σ-compact absolute retract X is found such that the power X^{n+1} is 𝓐₁[n]-universal for every n.

On weakly infinite-dimensional subspuees

P. Borst (1992)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We will construct weakly infinite-dimensional (in the sense of Y. Smirnov) spaces X and Y such that Y contains X topologically and d i m Y = ω 0 and d i m X = ω 0 + 1 . Consequently, the subspace theorem does not hold for the transfinite dimension dim for weakly infinite-dimensional spaces.

Open maps having the Bula property

Valentin Gutev, Vesko Valov (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

An open continuous map f from a space X onto a paracompact C-space Y admits two disjoint closed sets F₀,F₁ ⊂ X with f(F₀) = Y = f(F₁), provided all fibers of f are infinite and C*-embedded in X. Applications are given to the existence of "disjoint" usco multiselections of set-valued l.s.c. mappings defined on paracompact C-spaces, and to special type of factorizations of open continuous maps from metrizable spaces onto paracompact C-spaces. This settles several open questions.

Ordinal products of topological spaces

Vitalij Chatyrko (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

The notion of the ordinal product of a transfinite sequence of topological spaces which is an extension of the finite product operation is introduced. The dimensions of finite and infinite ordinal products are estimated. In particular, the dimensions of ordinary products of Smirnov's [S] and Henderson's [He1] compacta are calculated.

Raising dimension under all projections

John Cobb (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

As a special case of the general question - “What information can be obtained about the dimension of a subset of n by looking at its orthogonal projections into hyperplanes?” - we construct a Cantor set in 3 each of whose projections into 2-planes is 1-dimensional. We also consider projections of Cantor sets in n whose images contain open sets, expanding on a result of Borsuk.
