On resolvability and tightness in uncountable spaces

Abstract

We investigate connections between resolvability and different forms of tightness. This study is adjacent to [1,2]. We construct a non-regular refinement τ\tau^* of the natural topology of the real line R\mathbb{R} with properties such that the space (R,τ)(\mathbb{R}, \tau^*) has a hereditary nowhere dense tightness and it has no ω1\omega_1-resolvable subspaces, whereas Δ(R,τ)=c\Delta(\mathbb{R}, \tau^*) = \frak{c}. We also show that the proof of the main result of [1], being slightly modified, leads to the following strengthening: if LL is a Hausdorff space of countable character and the space LωL^\omega is c.c.c., then every submaximal dense subspace of LκL^\kappa has disjoint tightness. As a corollary, for every κω\kappa \geq \omega there is a Tychonoff submaximal space XX such that X=Δ(X)=κ|X|=\Delta(X)=\kappa and XX has disjoint tightness.
