Point-regular covers and sequence-covering compact mappings

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2293002





The authors deal with relations among point-regular covers, uniform covers and \(\sigma\)-point-finite covers of a topological space. They express spaces with a point-regular special family as images of metric spaces under certain compact mappings. They also show that the following statements are equivalent for a subset \(A\) of a topological space \(X\): (1)\, \(X\) has a point-regular \(cs\)-network at \(A\) for \(X\). (2)\, \(X\) has a point-regular \(sn\)-network at \(A\) for \(X\). (3)\, \(X\) has a uniform \(cs\)-network at \(A\) for \(X\). (4)\, \(X\) has a uniform \(sn\)-network at \(A\) for \(X\). (5)\, There are a metric space \(M\) and a mapping \(f:M\to X\) satisfying the following conditions: For each \(x\in A\), \(f^{-1}(x)\) is compact in \(M\); and there is a point \(z\in f^{-1}(x)\) such that \(f(U)\) is a sequential neighborhood of \(x\) in \(X\) whenever \(U\) is a neighborhood of \(z\) in \(M\). With the help of their results they characterize certain compact images of metric spaces. This highly developed theory is necessarily fairly technical. But the authors help the reader by reminding definitions of used concepts and stating explicitly many cited results from the literature. (All spaces are \(T_1\) and all mappings are continuous and onto.)
