My name is Jestine (34 years old) and my hobbies are Origami and Microscopy.

Here is my web site; http://Www.hostgator1centcoupon.info/ (support.file1.com) In the mathematical field of general topology, a Dowker space is a topological space that is T4 but not countably paracompact.

Equivalences

If X is a normal T1 space (a T4 space), then the following are equivalent:

Dowker conjectured that there were no Dowker spaces, and the conjecture was not resolved until M.E. Rudin constructed one[2] in 1971. Rudin's counterexample is a very large space (of cardinality ω0) and is generally not well-behaved. Zoltán Balogh gave the first ZFC construction[3] of a small (cardinality continuum) example, which was more well-behaved than Rudin's. Using PCF theory, M. Kojman and S. Shelah constructed[4] a subspace of Rudin's Dowker space of cardinality ω+1 that is also Dowker.
