Wellordering Theorems in Topology

  • Chapter

Abstract

In this paper we consider topological variants of Zermelo’s well-ordering theorem. Given topological notions, P, Q of the form “some class of subsets of a space X is wellorderable”, we consider assertions of the form “if a space X satisfies P, also Q holds for X”. The properties to be considered here are related to the following cardinal invariants: cardinality of the topology, weight, density, Lindelöf-degree, spread, (hereditary) cellularity. Accordingly we define for a topological space (X, X)
