The authors make some interesting contributions to the question whether different powers of certain spaces are homeomorphic. Their results include the following, where \(\approx\) denotes homeomorphic, S denotes the Sorgenfrey line and M the Michael line. Theorem 1.1. Let \(X=S\) or, more generally, let X be a subspace of S such that no nonempty open subset of \(X^ 2\) is Lindelöf. If \(1\leq m\), \(n\leq \omega\), then \(X^ m\approx X^ n\) if and only if \(m=n\). Theorem 1.2. Suppose that \(X=M\) or, more generally, that \(Q\subset X\subset M\) (where Q is the rationals) and \(X\cap (a,b)\) is uncountable whenever \(a<b\). If \(1\leq m\), \(n\leq \omega\), then \(X^ m\approx X^ n\) if and only if \(m=n\). Example 4.1. There is an uncountable \(X\subset M\) such that \(X^ 2,X^ 3,X^ 4,..\). are homeomorphic but \(X^ 2\approx X\). Example 4.5. There is a continuous 1-1 map for \(S^ 2\) onto S.
