Regular spaces of small extent are omega-resolvable

Istvan Juhasz, Lajos Soukup, Zoltan Szentmiklossy

Published 2013-11-07Version 1

We improve some results of Pavlov and of Filatova, respectively, concerning a problem of Malychin by showing that every regular space X that satisfies Delta(X)>ext(X) is omega-resolvable. Here Delta(X), the dispersion character of X, is the smallest size of a non-empty open set in X and ext(X), the extent of X, is the supremum of the sizes of all closed-and-discrete subsets of X. In particular, regular Lindel\"of spaces of uncountable dispersion character are omega-resolvable. We also prove that any regular Lindel\"of space X with |X|=\Delta(X)=omega_1 is even omega_1-resolvable. The question if regular Lindel\"of spaces of uncountable dispersion character are maximally resolvable remains wide open.
