In particular, we show that it is simply equal to the maximum of the Szlenk indices of the spaces $C(K), C(L)$. We deduce several results regarding non-isomorphism of $C(K)\\widehat{\\otimes}_\\pi C(L)$ and $C(M)$ or $C(M)\\widehat{\\otimes}_\\pi C(N)$ for particular choices of $K,L,M,N$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-12-24T20:33:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "szlenk index", "arbitrary projective tensor product", "hausdorff spaces", "results regarding non-isomorphism", "continuous functions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
