A new countably determined Banach space (Q792582): Difference between revisions

We construct a compact space K with the following properties. The Banach space \(X=C(K)\), provided with the weak topology, is an upper-continuous compact valued image of a separable metric space, but is not an upper- continuous compact valued image of the irrational. In other words, X is countably determined, but is not K-analytic. The technique of construction of K has subsequently proved useful in constructing other types of compacts.
