On subspaces of spaces \(C_p(X)\) isomorphic to spaces \(c_0\) and \(\ell_q\) with the topology induced from \(\mathbb{R}^{\mathbb{N}}\) (Q6178592): Difference between revisions

The authors study spaces of continuous, real-valued functions on completely regular (Tychonoff) spaces endowed with the topology of pointwise convergence and the question when they contain copies of the space \(c_0\), again with the topology of pointwise convergence (denoted \((c_0)_p\)). They prove that for an infinite completely regular space \(X\), \(C_p(X)\) does indeed contain a copy of \((c_0)_p\). Moreover, if \(X\) contains an infinite compact subset, then \(C_p(X)\) contains a closed copy of \((c_0)_p\).
