Open mappings of submetrizable spaces

From MaRDI portal





``The behaviour of submetrizability of spaces is studied for open continuous bicompact mappings; metrizability of M-spaces which are the images of submetrizable spaces is examined. Theorem 1. Suppose X is a submetrizable space and f: \(X\to Y\) is a continuous mapping. (a) If f is an almost open bicompact mapping and Y is an M-space, then Y is metrizable. (b) If f is an open bicompact mapping and Y is a paracompactum, then Y is a submetrizable space. Only an outline of the proof of the above result is presented. Two other theorems giving sufficient conditions for metrizability of M-spaces that are images of some spaces under mappings satisfying special assumptions (as peripheral compactness or pseudoopen bicompactness) are stated without proofs. Two questions are asked.
