Abstract

This paper studies one-dimensional non-Hausdorff manifolds that are similar to "graphs with split vertices". It is shown that if MM is a connected one-dimensional non-Hausdorff manifold such that the set of its "non-Hausdorff" points is locally finite, and each component of its complement has a countable base, then there exists a quotient map π ⁣:MΓ\pi\colon M \to \Gamma onto an open one-dimensional CW complex, which maps the non-Hausdorff points of MM to the vertices of Γ\Gamma. Moreover, Γ\Gamma is the minimal Hausdorff quotient of MM, that is, for every continuous map f ⁣:MNf\colon M \to N into a Hausdorff space NN, there exists a unique continuous map f^ ⁣:ΓN\hat{f}\colon \Gamma \to N such that f=f^πf = \hat{f} \circ \pi.
