Abstract

A space XX is M-separable (selectively separable) (Scheepers, 1999; Bella et al., 2009) if for every sequence (Yn)(Y_n) of dense subspaces of XX there exists a sequence (Fn)(F_n) such that for each nn FnF_n is a finite subset of YnY_n and nNFn\cup_{n\in \mathbb{N}} F_n is dense in XX. In this paper, we introduce and study a strengthening of M-separability situated between H- and M-separability, which we call S-separability: for every sequence (Yn)(Y_n) of dense subspaces of XX there exists a sequence (Fn)(F_n) such that for each nn FnF_n is a finite subset of YnY_n and for each finite family F\mathcal F of nonempty open sets of XX some nn satisfies UFnU\cap F_n\neq\emptyset for all UFU\in \mathcal F.
