Abstract

For an index set Γ\Gamma and a cardinal number κ\kappa the Σκ\Sigma_{\kappa}-product of real lines Σκ(RΓ)\Sigma_{\kappa}(\mathbb{R}^{\Gamma}) consist of all elements of RΓ\mathbb{R}^{\Gamma} with <κ<\kappa nonzero coordinates. A compact space is κ\kappa-Corson if it can be embedded into Σκ(RΓ)\Sigma_{\kappa}(\mathbb{R}^{\Gamma}) for some Γ\Gamma. We also consider a class of compact spaces wider than the class of ω\omega-Corson compact spaces, investigated by Nakhmanson and Yakovlev as well as Marciszewski, Plebanek and Zakrzewski called NYNY compact spaces. For a Tychonoff space XX, let Cp(X)C_{p}(X) be the space of real continuous functions on the space XX, endowed with the pointwise convergence topology. We present here a characterisation of κ\kappa-Corson compact spaces KK for regular, uncountable cardinal numbers κ\kappa in terms of function spaces Cp(K)C_{p}(K), extending a theorem of Bell and Marciszewski and a theorem of Pol. We also prove that classes of NYNY compact spaces and ω\omega-Corson compact spaces KK are preserved by linear homeomorphisms of function spaces Cp(K)C_{p}(K).
