First countable spaces without point-countable π-bases

István Juhász, Lajos Soukup, Zoltán Szentmiklóssy (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We answer several questions of V. Tkachuk [Fund. Math. 186 (2005)] by showing that ∙ there is a ZFC example of a first countable, 0-dimensional Hausdorff space with no point-countable π-base (in fact, the minimum order of a π-base of the space can be made arbitrarily large); ∙ if there is a κ-Suslin line then there is a first countable GO-space of cardinality κ⁺ in which the order of any π-base is at least κ; ∙ it is consistent to have a...

Reflecting topological properties in continuous images

Vladimir Tkachuk (2012)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

Given a topological property P, we study when it reflects in small continuous images, i.e., when for some infinite cardinal κ, a space X has P if and only if all its continuous images of weight less or equal to κ have P. We say that a cardinal invariant η reflects in continuous images of weight κ + if η(X) ≤ κ provided that η(Y) ≤ κ whenever Y is a continuous image of X of weight less or equal to κ +. We establish that, for any infinite cardinal κ, the spread, character, pseudocharacter...

Countable Compact Scattered T₂ Spaces and Weak Forms of AC

Kyriakos Keremedis, Evangelos Felouzis, Eleftherios Tachtsis (2006)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We show that: (1) It is provable in ZF (i.e., Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory minus the Axiom of Choice AC) that every compact scattered T₂ topological space is zero-dimensional. (2) If every countable union of countable sets of reals is countable, then a countable compact T₂ space is scattered iff it is metrizable. (3) If the real line ℝ can be expressed as a well-ordered union of well-orderable sets, then every countable compact zero-dimensional...

A construction of a Fréchet-Urysohn space, and some convergence concepts

Aleksander V. Arhangel'skii (2010)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Some strong versions of the Fréchet-Urysohn property are introduced and studied. We also strengthen the concept of countable tightness and generalize the notions of first-countability and countable base. A construction of a topological space is described which results, in particular, in a Tychonoff countable Fréchet-Urysohn space which is not first-countable at any point. It is shown that this space can be represented as the image of a countable metrizable space under a continuous pseudoopen...
