Abstract: We call a pair of infinite cardinals $(kappa,lambda)$ with $kappa>lambda$ a dominating (resp. pinning down) pair for a topological space $X$ if for every subset $A$ of $X$ (resp. family $mathcalU$ of non-empty open sets in $X$) of cardinality $lekappa$ there is $BsubsetX$ of cardinality $lelambda$ such that $AsubsetoverlineB$ (resp. $BcapUeemptyset$ for each $UinmathcalU$). Clearly, a dominating pair is also a pinning down pair for $X$. Our definitions generalize the concepts introduced in [GTW] resp. [BT] which focused on pairs of the form $(2^{l}ambda,lambda)$. The main aim of this paper is to answer a large number of the numerous problems from [GTW] and [BT] that asked if certain conditions on a space $X$ together with the assumption that $(2^{l}ambda,lambda)$ or $((2^{l}ambda{)}^{+},lambda)$ is a pinning down pair or dominating pair for $X$ would imply $d(X)lelambda$.
