A finite product of ordinals is hereditarily dually discrete
For a topological property \(\mathcal P\) a space \(X\) is dually \(\mathcal P\) if for each neighbourhood assignment \(\phi\) for \(X\) there is a \(\mathcal P\) subspace \(Y\subset X\) such that \(X=\cup\{\phi(y)\mid y\in Y\}\). The author extends a previous result by showing that a finite product of ordinals is hereditarily dually discrete. It is then concluded that if \(Y\) is a subspace of the product of finitely many ordinals then \(Y\) has countable spread if and only if \(Y\) is hereditarily Lindelöf if and only if \(Y\) is a hereditarily Lindelöf \(D\)-space, and in that case \(Y\) is perfectly normal.
