Abstract: Let us denote by Phi(lambda,mu) the statement that mathbbB(lambda)=D(lambda)omega, i.e. the Baire space of weight lambda, has a coloring with mu colors such that every homeomorphic copy of the Cantor set mathbbC in mathbbB(lambda) picks up all the mu colors. We call a space X, {em pi-regular} if it is Hausdorff and for every non-empty open set U in X there is a non-empty open set V such that overlineVsubsetU. We recall that a space X is called {em feebly compact} if every locally finite collection of open sets in X is finite. A Tychonov space is pseudocompact iff it is feebly compact. The main result of this paper is the following. Theorem. Let X be a crowded feebly compact pi-regular space and mu be a fixed (finite or infinite) cardinal. If Phi(lambda,mu) holds for all lambda<widehatc(X) then X is mu-resolvable, i.e. contains mu pairwise disjoint dense subsets. (Here widehatc(X) is the smallest cardinal kappa such that X does not contain kappa many pairwise disjoint open sets.) This significantly improves earlier results of van Mill , resp. Ortiz-Castillo and Tomita.
