Finite powers of selectively pseudocompact groups

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: A space X is called {it selectively pseudocompact} if for each sequence (Un)ninmathbbN of pairwise disjoint nonempty open subsets of X there is a sequence (xn)ninmathbbN of points in X such that and xninUn, for each n<omega. Countably compact space spaces are selectively pseudocompact and every selectively pseudocompact space is pseudocompact. We show, under the assumption of CH, that for every positive integer k>2 there exists a topological group whose k-th power is countably compact but its (k+1)-st power is not selectively pseudocompact. This provides a positive answer to a question posed in cite{gt} in any model of ZFC+CH.
