A variation of the class of statistical \(\gamma\) covers (Q6068449)

Recall that the natural or asymptotic density of a subset \(A\subset\mathbb N\) is \(\delta(A)=\lim_{n\to\infty}|\{m\in A\mid m<n\}|/n\) if the limit exists. The authors investigate some properties of statistical \(\gamma\)-covers of a topological space \(X\), i.e., those countable open covers \(\mathcal U=\{U_n\mid n\in\mathbb N\}\) such that for each \(x\in X\), \(\delta(\{n\in\mathbb N\mid x\notin U_n\})=0\), and a related notion where \(x\notin U_n\) is replaced by \(x\notin\mathrm{St}(U_n,\mathcal U)\). It has to be noted that Theorem 3.5 is false: for example take \(F=X=\mathbb N\) with the discrete topology and \(U_n=X\setminus\{n\}\). Similarly the proof of Theorem~4.5 is defective.
