On the dimension of ordered spaces (Q1128058)

The author demonstrates that for non-empty generalized ordered spaces \(X\) (i.e., subspaces of linearly ordered topological spaces) the following conditions are equivalent: (a) \(X\) is totally disconnected, (b) \(\text{ind} X=0\), (c) \(\text{Ind} X=0\), (d) \(\dim X=0\), (e) \(\text{ep} X=0\) [where, unfortunately, \(\text{ep} X\) is not defined in the paper]; and that \(\text{ind} X= \text{Ind} X= \dim X= \text{ep} X=1\) whenever \(X\) is not totally disconnected.
