We also solve a long standing question due to Arhangel'skii by constructing a compact space which has a $G_\\delta$ cover with no continuum-sized ($G_\\delta$)-dense subcollection.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-05-18T15:51:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "compact space", "compact weakly lindelof normal space", "countably compact weakly lindelof normal", "long standing question", "dense subcollection" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
