Compact universals

From MaRDI portal





The authors deal with function and set universals. Their main results connect the metrisability of the space \(X\) with properties of the parametrising space \(Y\). They show that a space \(X\) is metrizable if and only if it has a zero-set universal parametrised by a \(\sigma\)-compact space. The authors show also that if we weaken the condition on the parametrizing space to Lindelöf-\(\Sigma\) space, then \(X\) will not necessarily be a metrizable space, but it has a \(\sigma\)-disjoint basis.
