A Wallace semigroup whose every finite power is countably compact

General Topology 2024-03-08 v2 Logic

Abstract

We show that, assuming the existence of c\mathfrak{c} incomparable selective ultrafilters, there exists a Wallace semigroup whose infinite countable power is the least power which fails to be countably compact. This answers positively Question 9.4 of \cite{Tomita15}.
