Abstract

If X is an uncountable Polish space, then the space BC(X) of bounded continuous functions on X is a factor of BC(I), where I denotes the set of irrational numbers. Etcheberry proved this by constructing a continuous surjection π: I→X that admits an averaging operator. Here, we provide an alternative technique for the construction of averaging operators that are even regular and also allow one to prove the first mentioned result.
