Descent for compact 0-dimensional spaces.
For a space X and a regular uncountable cardinal κ ≤ |X| we say that κ ∈ D(X) if for each with |T| = κ, there is an open neighborhood W of Δ(X) such that |T - W| = κ. If then we say that X has a small diagonal, and if every regular uncountable κ ≤ |X| belongs to D(X) then we say that X has an H-diagonal. In this paper we investigate the interplay between D(X) and topological properties of X in the category of generalized ordered spaces. We obtain cardinal invariant theorems and metrization theorems...
We investigate the triples in the category of compacta whose functorial parts are normal functors in the sense of E.V. Shchepin (normal triples). The problem of lifting of functors to the categories of algebras of the normal triples is considered. The distributive law for normal triples is completely described.
