Abstract

Galego and Samuel showed that if K,LK,L are metrizable, compact, Hausdorff spaces, then C(K)^πC(L)C(K)\widehat{\otimes}_\pi C(L) is c0c_0-saturated if and only if it is subprojective if and only if KK and LL are both scattered. We remove the hypothesis of metrizability from their result, and extend it from the case of the two-fold projective tensor product to the general nn-fold projective tensor product to show that for any nNn\in\mathbb{N} and compact, Hausdorff spaces K1,,KnK_1, \ldots, K_n, ^π,i=1nC(Ki)\widehat{\otimes}_{\pi, i=1}^n C(K_i) is c0c_0-saturated if and only if it is subprojective if and only if each KiK_i is scattered.
