Diagonal conditions in ordered spaces

Harold Bennett, David Lutzer (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For a space X and a regular uncountable cardinal κ ≤ |X| we say that κ ∈ D(X) if for each T X 2 - Δ ( X ) with |T| = κ, there is an open neighborhood W of Δ(X) such that |T - W| = κ. If ω 1 D ( X ) 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...

Dimension-raising maps in a large scale

Takahisa Miyata, Žiga Virk (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Hurewicz's dimension-raising theorem states that dim Y ≤ dim X + n for every n-to-1 map f: X → Y. In this paper we introduce a new notion of finite-to-one like map in a large scale setting. Using this notion we formulate a dimension-raising type theorem for asymptotic dimension and asymptotic Assouad-Nagata dimension. It is also well-known (Hurewicz's finite-to-one mapping theorem) that dim X ≤ n if and only if there exists an (n+1)-to-1 map from a 0-dimensional space onto X. We formulate a finite-to-one...

Disasters in metric topology without choice

Eleftherios Tachtsis (2002)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We show that it is consistent with ZF that there is a dense-in-itself compact metric space ( X , d ) which has the countable chain condition (ccc), but X is neither separable nor second countable. It is also shown that X has an open dense subspace which is not paracompact and that in ZF the Principle of Dependent Choice, DC, does not imply the disjoint union of metrizable spaces is normal.
