On spaces whose product with every Lindelöf space is Lindelöf
A sufficient condition that the product of two compact spaces has the property of weak approximation by points (briefly WAP) is given. It follows that the product of the unit interval with a compact WAP space is also a WAP space.
A space is -starcompact if for every open cover of there exists a Lindelöf subset of such that We clarify the relations between -starcompact spaces and other related spaces and investigate topological properties of -starcompact spaces. A question of Hiremath is answered.
We characterize the subsets of the Alexandroff duplicate which have a G-diagonal and the subsets which are M-spaces in the sense of Morita.
It is proved that, under the Martin’s Axiom, every -space with countable tightness is a subspace of some pseudo-radial space. We also give several characterizations of subspaces of pseudo-radial spaces and conclude that being a subspace of a pseudo-radial space is a local property.
Answering a question of Telgársky in the negative, it is shown that there is a space which is β-favorable in the strong Choquet game, but all of its nonempty -subspaces are of the second category in themselves.
We prove that the cardinality of power homogeneous Hausdorff spaces X is bounded by . This inequality improves many known results and it also solves a question by J. van Mill. We further introduce Δ-power homogeneity, which leads to a new proof of van Douwen’s theorem.
In the framework of ZF (Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory without the Axiom of Choice) we provide topological and Boolean-algebraic characterizations of the statements " is countably compact" and " is compact"
We calculate the density of the hyperspace of a metric space, endowed with the Hausdorff or the locally finite topology. To this end, we introduce suitable generalizations of the notions of totally bounded and compact metric space.
