Abstract

For a separable metric space X, we consider possibilities for the sequence S ( X ) = d n : n where d n = d i m X n . In Section 1, a general method for producing examples is given which can be used to realize many of the possible sequences. For example, there is X n such that S ( X n ) = n , n + 1 , n + 2 , . . . , Y n , for n >1, such that S ( Y n ) = n , n + 1 , n + 2 , n + 2 , n + 2 , . . . , and Z such that S(Z) = 4, 4, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9,.... In Section 2, a subset X of 2 is shown to exist which satisfies 1 = d i m X = d i m X 2 and d i m X 3 = 2 .
