F-spaces and z-embedded subspaces

Mark Mandelker

Vol. 28 (1969), No. 3, 615–621
Abstract

A completely regular Hausdorff space is an F-space if disjoint cozero-sets have disjoint closures. Here the theory of prime z-filters is applied to the study of F-spaces. A z-embedded subspace is one in which the zero-sets are all intersections of the subspace with zero-sets in the larger space. It is shown that every z-embedded subspace of an F-space is also an F-space. Also, a new characterization of F-spaces is obtained: Every z-embedded subspace is C-embedded in its closure.
