We show that a Tychonoff discretely star-Lindelof space can have arbitrarily big extent and note that there are consistent examples of normal discretely star-Lindelof spaces with uncountable extent.
If B is a compact space and B\{pt} is Lindelof then B^k\{pt} is star-Linedlof for every cardinality k. If B\{pt} is compact then B^k\{pt} is discretely star-Lindelof. In particular, this gives new examples of Tychonoff discretely…
A space $ X $ is said to be set star-Lindel\"{o}f (resp., set strongly star-Lindel\"{o}f) if for each nonempty subset $ A $ of $ X $ and each collection $ \mathcal{U} $ of open sets in $ X $ such that $ \overline{A} \subseteq \bigcup…
We show that if $X$ has a zero-set diagonal and $X^2$ has countable weak extent, then $X$ is submetrizable. This generalizes earlier results from Martin and Buzyakova. Furthermore we show that if $X$ has a regular $G_\delta$-diagonal and…
We answer a question of Yasui. Morever, we show that if a Tychonoff space Y is countably 1-paracompact in every Tychonoff space X that contains Y as a closed subspace then Y is linearly Lindelof.
We show that there exists a Tychono? weakly Lindel\"of space which does not have the property $^*\mathcal{U}_{fin}(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{O})$. This result answers the following open questions. [2] Does a weakly Lindel\"of space have the…
Tkachuk and Wilson proved that a regular first countable cellular-compact space has cardinality not exceeding the continuum. In the same paper they asked if this result continues to hold for Hausdorff spaces. Xuan and Song considered the…
No convenient internal characterization of spaces that are productively Lindelof is known. Perhaps the best general result known is Alster's internal characterization, under the Continuum Hypothesis, of productively Lindelof spaces which…
We give a general closing-off argument in Theorem 2.1 from which several corollaries follow, including (1) if $X$ is a locally compact Hausdorff space then $|X|\leq 2^{wL(X)\psi(X)}$, and (2) if $X$ is a locally compact power homogeneous…
We improve some results of Pavlov and of Filatova, respectively, concerning a problem of Malychin by showing that every regular space X that satisfies Delta(X)>ext(X) is omega-resolvable. Here Delta(X), the dispersion character of X, is the…
We define a topological space to be an "SDL space" if the closure of each one of its strongly discrete subsets is Lindel\"of. After distinguishing this property from the Lindel\"of property we make various remarks about cardinal invariants…
In this work we prove that if $X$ is a complete locally convex space and $f:X\to \mathbb{R}\cup \{+\infty \}$ is a function such that $f-x^\ast$ attains its minimum for every $x^\ast \in U$, where $U$ is an open set with respect to the…
For a Urysohn space $X$ we define the regular diagonal degree $\overline{\Delta}(X)$ of $X$ to be the minimal infinite cardinal $\kappa$ such that $X$ has a regular $G_\kappa$-diagonal i.e. there is a family $(U_\eta:\eta<\kappa)$ of open…
Generalizing de Vries Compactification Theorem and strengthening Leader Local Compactification Theorem, we describe the partially ordered set $(\LL(X),\le)$ of all (up to equivalence) locally compact Hausdorff extensions of a Tychonoff…
We prove that: I. If $L$ is a $T_1$ space, $|L|>1$ and $d(L) \leq \kappa \geq \omega$, then there is a submaximal dense subspace $X$ of $L^{2^\kappa}$ such that $|X|=\Delta(X)=\kappa$; II. If $\frak{c}\leq\kappa=\kappa^\omega<\lambda$ and…
We show that if $X$ is a separable locally compact Hausdorff connected space with fewer than $\mathfrak c$ non-cut points, then $X$ embeds into a dendrite $D\subseteq \mathbb R ^2$, and the set of non-cut points of $X$ is a nowhere dense…
A space is od-compact (resp. od-Lindel\"of) provided any cover by open dense sets has a finite (resp. countable) subcover. We first show with simple examples that these properties behave quite poorly under finite or countable unions. We…
We give several new bounds for the cardinality of a Hausdorff topological space $X$ involving the weak Lindel\"of degree $wL(X)$. In particular, we show that if $X$ is extremally disconnected, then $|X|\leq 2^{wL(X)\pi\chi(X)\psi(X)}$, and…
We introduce the notion of weakly (strongly) infinite real rank for unital $C^{\ast}$-algebras. It is shown that a compact space $X$ is weakly (strongly) infine-dimensional if and only if $C(X)$ has weakly (strongly) infinite real rank.…
Lindel\"of spaces are studied in any basic Topology course. However, there are other interesting covering properties with similar behaviour, such as almost Lindel\"of, weakly Lindel\"of, and quasi-Lindel\"of, that have been considered in…
