Such a clean upper bound for Lindel\\\"of spaces in the larger class of spaces whose points are ${\\sf G}_{\\delta}$ has been more elusive. In this paper we continue the agenda started in F.D. Tall, On the cardinality of Lindel\\\"of spaces with points $G_{\\delta}$, Topology and its Applications 63 (1995), 21 - 38, of considering the cardinality problem for spaces satisfying stronger versions of the Lindel\\\"of property. Infinite games and selection principles, especially the Rothberger property, are essential tools in our investigations", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-09-02T18:57:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "54D20", "03E35", "03E55", "91A44" ], "keywords": [ "selection principles", "lindelof indestructibility", "topological games", "first countable hausdorff space", "cardinality" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 44, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0902.1944S" } } }
