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.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-11-07T15:51:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "54A35", "03E35", "54A25" ], "keywords": [ "regular space", "small extent", "uncountable dispersion character", "omega-resolvable", "maximally resolvable remains wide open" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1311.1719J" } } }
