Spaces whose Pseudocompact Subspaces are Closed Subsets

Spaces Whose Pseudocompact Subspaces Are Closed Subsets

Every first countable pseudocompact Tychonoff space X has the property that every pseudocompact subspace of X is a closed subset of X (denoted herein by “FCC”). We study the property FCC and several closely related ones, and focus on the behavior of extension and other spaces which have one or more of these properties. Characterization, embedding and product theorems are obtained, and some exam...

Pseudocompact Spaces

Maximal pseudocompact spaces

Maximal pseudocompact spaces (i.e. pseudocompact spaces possessing no strictly stronger pseudocompact topology) are characterized. It is shown that submaximal pseudocompact spaces whose pseudocompact subspaces are closed need not be maximal pseudocompact. Various techniques for constructing maximal pseudocompact spaces are described. Maximal pseudocompactness is compared to maximal feeble compa...

Closed subsets of absolutely star-Lindelöf spaces II

In this paper, we prove the following two statements: (1) There exists a discretely absolutely star-Lindelöf Tychonoff space having a regular-closed subspace which is not CCC-Lindelöf. (2) Every Hausdorff (regular, Tychonoff) linked-Lindelöf space can be represented in a Hausdorff (regular, Tychonoff) absolutely star-Lindelöf space as a closed Gδ subspace.

Lattices of regular closed subsets of closure spaces

For a closure space (P,φ) with φ(∅) = ∅, the closures of open subsets of P , called the regular closed subsets, form an ortholattice Reg(P,φ), extending the poset Clop(P,φ) of all clopen subsets. If (P,φ) is a finite convex geometry, then Reg(P, φ) is pseudocomplemented. The Dedekind-MacNeille completion of the poset of regions of any central hyperplane arrangement can be obtained in this way, ...
