Abstract: In our paper [18] we showed that a Tychonoff space X is a Delta-space (in the sense of [20], [30]) if and only if the locally convex space Cp(X) is distinguished. Continuing this research, we investigate whether the class Delta of Delta-spaces is invariant under the basic topological operations. We prove that if XinDelta and varphi:XoY is a continuous surjection such that varphi(F) is an Fsigma-set in Y for every closed set FsubsetX, then also YinDelta. As a consequence, if X is a countable union of closed subspaces Xi such that each XiinDelta, then also XinDelta. In particular, sigma-product of any family of scattered Eberlein compact spaces is a Delta-space and the product of a Delta-space with a countable space is a Delta-space. Our results give answers to several open problems posed in cite{KL}. Let T:Cp(X)longrightarrowCp(Y) be a continuous linear surjection. We observe that T admits an extension to a linear continuous operator widehatT from RX onto RY and deduce that Y is a Delta-space whenever X is. Similarly, assuming that X and Y are metrizable spaces, we show that Y is a Q-set whenever X is. Making use of obtained results, we provide a very short proof for the claim that every compact Delta-space has countable tightness. As a consequence, under Proper Forcing Axiom (PFA) every compact Delta-space is sequential. In the article we pose a dozen open questions.
