On the extent of star countable spaces

Ofelia Alas, Lucia Junqueira, Jan Mill, Vladimir Tkachuk, Richard Wilson (2011)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

For a topological property P, we say that a space X is star Pif for every open cover Uof the space X there exists Y ⊂ X such that St(Y,U) = X and Y has P. We consider star countable and star Lindelöf spaces establishing, among other things, that there exists first countable pseudocompact spaces which are not star Lindelöf. We also describe some classes of spaces in which star countability is equivalent to countable extent and show that a star countable space with a dense σ-compact subspace...

Closed discrete subsets of separable spaces and relative versions of normality, countable paracompactness and property ( a )

Samuel Gomes da Silva (2011)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this paper we show that a separable space cannot include closed discrete subsets which have the cardinality of the continuum and satisfy relative versions of any of the following topological properties: normality, countable paracompactness and property ( a ) . It follows that it is consistent that closed discrete subsets of a separable space X which are also relatively normal (relatively countably paracompact, relatively ( a ) ) in X are necessarily countable. There are, however, consistent...
