Abstract

Let f:X×KRf: X\times K\to \mathbb R be a separately continuous function and C\mathcal C a countable collection of subsets of KK. Following a result of Calbrix and Troallic, there is a residual set of points xXx\in X such that ff is jointly continuous at each point of {x}×Q\{x\}\times Q, where QQ is the set of yKy\in K for which the collection C\mathcal C includes a basis of neighborhoods in KK. The particular case when the factor KK is second countable was recently extended by Moors and Kenderov to any \v{C}ech-complete Lindel\"of space KK and Lindel\"of α\alpha-favorable XX, improving a generalization of Namioka's theorem obtained by Talagrand. Moors proved the same result when KK is a Lindel\"of pp-space and XX is conditionally σ\sigma-α\alpha-favorable space. Here we add new results of this sort when the factor XX is σC(X)\sigma_{C(X)}-β\beta-defavorable and when the assumption "base of neighborhoods" in Calbrix-Troallic's result is replaced by a type of countable completeness. The paper also provides further information about the class of Namioka spaces.
