Abstract

For separable metrizable spaces X,YX,Y and a metrizable topological group ZZ by S(X×Y,Z)S(X\times Y,Z) we denote the space of all separately continuous functions f:X×YZf:X\times Y\to Z endowed with the topology of layer-wise uniform convergence, generated by the subbase consisting of the sets [KX×KY,U]={fS(X×Y,Z):f(KX×KY)U}[K_X\times K_Y,U]=\{f\in S(X\times Y,Z):f(K_X\times K_Y)\subset U\}, where UU is an open subset of ZZ and KXXK_X\subset X, KYYK_Y\subset Y are compact sets one of which is a singleton. We prove that every separately continuous function f:X×YZf:X\times Y\to Z with zero-dimensional image f(X×Y)f(X\times Y) is a limit of a sequence of jointly continuous functions in the topology of layer-wise uniform convergence.
