Abstract

In the present paper, we prove that a topological space admits a functorial Lindel\"ofification if and only if its realcompactification is Lindel\"of. To investigate the functorial Lindel\"ofifiability of a topological space, for each topological property P\mathsf{P}, we introduce the notion of "functorial P\mathsf{P}-ification" and give an explicit construction of the functorial P\mathsf{P}-ification. Moreover, for a discrete space XX, we discuss the functorial X|X|-Lindel\"ofifiability of XX and study relationships with properties of the cardinal X|X|. Finally, we apply our results concerning functorial κ\kappa-Lindel\"ofifiability (for some cardinal κ\kappa) to the space of ordinals and construct several functorial κ\kappa-Lindel\"ofifiable spaces.
