Several remarks concerning \((m,n)\)-dimensions (Q471460): Difference between revisions

Spaces \(X\) considered herein are \(\mathrm{T}_1\) and normal. The notion of \((m,n)\)-dimension was introduced by V. Fedorchuk in 2012. Later, Fedorchuk introduced \((m,n)\)-Ind. These concepts respectively generalize classical covering dimension dim and large inductive dimension Ind. It turns out that \((2,1)\)-dim\(X=\)dim\(X\) and \((2,1)\)-Ind\(X=\)Ind\(X\). The dimensions \((m,n)\)-dim and \((m,n)\)-Ind are defined in a rather combinatorial way, employing finite open covers and refinements. We will not provide their definitions here. The author defines a new concept (p. 222) denoted \((m,n,r)\)-Ind. It is remarked that \((m,n)\)-Ind\(X=(m,n,1)\)-Ind\(X\), so this new type of dimension is a generalization of its predecessor. In what follows, \(\lfloor x\rfloor\) will denote the integer part of a given real number \(x\). The main results of the paper are as follows. Theorem 3.1. For every \(\mathrm{T}_1\) normal space \(X\), \((m,n)\)-\(\mathrm{dim}X=\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{dim}X}{n}\rfloor\). Theorem 4.1. For every \(\mathrm{T}_1\) normal space \(X\) and any \(r\leq n\), \((m,n,r)\)-\(\mathrm{Ind}X=(m,n)\)-\(\mathrm{Ind}X\). Theorem 4.2. For every metrizable space \(X\), \((m,n)\)-\(\mathrm{dim}X=(m,n)\)-\(\mathrm{Ind}X\).
