Abstract

In this paper we investigate R-,H-, and M-{\it nw}-selective properties introduced in \cite{BG}. In particular, we provide consistent uncountable examples of such spaces and we define \textit{trivial} R-,H-, and M-{\it nw}-selective spaces the ones with countable net weight having, additionally, the cardinality and the weight strictly less then cov(M)cov({\cal M}), b\frak b, and d\frak d, respectively. Since we establish that spaces having cardinalities more than cov(M)cov({\cal M}), b\frak b, and d\frak d, fail to have the R-,H-, and M-{\it nw}-selective properties, respectively, non-trivial examples should eventually have weight greater than or equal to these small cardinals. Using forcing methods, we construct consistent countable non-trivial examples of R-{\it nw}-selective and H-{\it nw}-selective spaces and we establish some limitations to constructions of non-trivial examples. Moreover, we consistently prove the existence of two H-{\it nw}-selective spaces whose product fails to be M-{\it nw}-selective. Finally, we study some relations between {\it nw}-selective properties and a strong version of the HFD property.
