Sequential compactness vs. countable compactness

Angelo Bella, Peter Nyikos (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The general question of when a countably compact topological space is sequentially compact, or has a nontrivial convergent sequence, is studied from the viewpoint of basic cardinal invariants and small uncountable cardinals. It is shown that the small uncountable cardinal 𝔥 is both the least cardinality and the least net weight of a countably compact space that is not sequentially compact, and that it is also the least hereditary Lindelöf degree in most published models.

Absolute countable compactness of products and topological groups

Yan-Kui Song (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this paper, we generalize Vaughan's and Bonanzinga's results on absolute countable compactness of product spaces and give an example of a separable, countably compact, topological group which is not absolutely countably compact. The example answers questions of Matveev [8, Question 1] and Vaughan [9, Question (1)].
