On the upper bound of the cardinality of Hausdorff topological spaces (Q6073660)

This paper deals with the class of Hausdorff spaces. In 1967 Hajnal and Juhász proved that \(|X| \leq 2^{\chi(X)c(X)}\) and in 1969 Arhangel'skii proved that \(|X| \leq 2^{\chi(X)L(X)}\). Using Pospišil's inequality, \(|X| \leq d(X)^{\chi(X)}\), Pol gave short proof of these two inequalities in 1974. In 1988, Sun generalized Hajnal-Juhász's inequality by showing that \(|X| \leq \pi\chi(X)^{c(X)\psi_c(X)}\). Also, in 1984, Willard and Dissanayake improved Pospišil's inequality by showing that \(|X| \leq d(X)^{\pi\chi(X)\psi_c(X)}\) and in [\textit{I. S. Gotchev} et al., Acta Math. Hung. 149, No. 2, 324--337 (2016; Zbl 1399.54024)], the present author, Tkachenko and Tkachuk improved Pospišil's inequality and Sun's inequality by showing that \(|X| \leq \pi w(X)^{ot(X)\psi_c(X)}\). In this paper the author proves that \(|X| \leq \pi w(X)^{dot(X)\psi_c(X)}\) and shows that this upper bound is either the same or less than the upper bound given by any one of the above-mentioned inequalities.
