Nagata's conjecture and countably compactifications in generic extensions

摘要

Nagata conjectured that every MM-space is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of the product of a countably compact space and a metric space. This conjecture was refuted by Burke and van Douwen, and A. Kato, independently. However, we can show that there is a c.c.c. poset PP of size 2ω2^{\omega} such that in VPV^P Nagata's conjecture holds for each first countable regular space from the ground model (i.e. if a first countable regular space XVX\in V is an MM-space in VPV^P then it is homeomorphic to a closed subspace of the product of a countably compact space and a metric space in VPV^P). In fact, we show that every first countable regular space from the ground model has a first countable countably compact extension in VPV^P, and then apply some results of Morita. As a corollary, we obtain that every first countable regular space from the ground model has a maximal first countable extension in model VPV^P.
