An independency result in connectification theory

Alessandro Fedeli, Attilio Le Donne (1999)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

A space is called connectifiable if it can be densely embedded in a connected Hausdorff space. Let ψ be the following statement: “a perfect T 3 -space X with no more than 2 𝔠 clopen subsets is connectifiable if and only if no proper nonempty clopen subset of X is feebly compact". In this note we show that neither ψ nor ¬ ψ is provable in ZFC.

The regular topology on C ( X )

Similarity:

Hewitt [Rings of real-valued continuous functions. I., Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 64 (1948), 45–99] defined the m -topology on C ( X ) , denoted C m ( X ) , and demonstrated that certain topological properties of X could be characterized by certain topological properties of C m ( X ) . For example, he showed that X is pseudocompact if and only if C m ( X ) is a metrizable space; in this case the m -topology is precisely the topology of uniform convergence. What is interesting with regards to the m -topology is that it is...

Convergence in compacta and linear Lindelöfness

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii, Raushan Z. Buzyakova (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let X be a compact Hausdorff space with a point x such that X { x } is linearly Lindelöf. Is then X first countable at x ? What if this is true for every x in X ? We consider these and some related questions, and obtain partial answers; in particular, we prove that the answer to the second question is “yes” when X is, in addition, ω -monolithic. We also prove that if X is compact, Hausdorff, and X { x } is strongly discretely Lindelöf, for every x in X , then X is first countable. An example of linearly...
