Abstract

In this note we investigate p-spaces and their relationship to Moore spaces. Specifically, it is shown that among p-spaces Moore spaces are equivalent to semi-metric spaces and spaces with a σ-discrete network. A certain class of p-spaces, called strict p-spaces, is given an internal characterization and this is used to show that a pointwise paracompact p-space with a point-countable base is a pointwise paracompact Moore space.
