Topological characterization of the small cardinal i

Antonio de Padua Franco-Filho (2003)

Similarity:

We show that the small cardinal number i = min { | 𝒜 | : 𝒜 is a maximal independent family} has the following topological characterization: i = min { κ c : { 0 , 1 } κ has a dense irresolvable countable subspace}, where { 0 , 1 } κ denotes the Cantor cube of weight κ . As a consequence of this result, we have that the Cantor cube of weight c has a dense countable submaximal subspace, if we assume (ZFC plus i = c ), or if we work in the Bell-Kunen model, where i = 1 and c = ω 1 .

Nowhere dense subsets and Booth's Lemma

The following statement is proved to be independent from [ LB + ¬ CH ] : ( * ) Let X be a Tychonoff space with c ( X ) 0 and π w ( X ) < . Then a union of less than of nowhere dense subsets of X is a union of not greater than π w ( X ) of nowhere dense subsets.
