Weak extent in normal spaces

Ronnie Levy, Mikhail Matveev (2005)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

If X is a space, then the we ( X ) of X is the cardinal min { α : If 𝒰 is an open cover of X , then there exists A X such that | A | = α and St ( A , 𝒰 ) = X } . In this note, we show that if X is a normal space such that | X | = 𝔠 and we ( X ) = ω , then X does not have a closed discrete subset of cardinality 𝔠 . We show that this result cannot be strengthened in ZFC to get that the extent of X is smaller than 𝔠 , even if the condition that we ( X ) = ω is replaced by the stronger condition that X is separable.

A note on transitively D -spaces

Liang-Xue Peng (2011)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In this note, we show that if for any transitive neighborhood assignment φ for X there is a point-countable refinement such that for any non-closed subset A of X there is some V such that | V A | ω , then X is transitively D . As a corollary, if X is a sequential space and has a point-countable w c s * -network then X is transitively D , and hence if X is a Hausdorff k -space and has a point-countable k -network, then X is transitively D . We prove that if X is a countably compact sequential space and...
