Characterizations of some C-embedded subspaces of βN

R. Grant Woods

Vol. 65 (1976), No. 2, 573–579
Abstract

Let K be a compact F-space such that |C(K)| = 2ω. Using the continuum hypothesis we characterize those subspaces of K that are C-embedded in K. We also characterize the class of extremally disconnected Tychonoff spaces of countable cellularity. As corollaries of these theorems, using various set-theoretic hypotheses we characterize the C-embedded, and the extremally disconnected C-embedded, subspaces of βN.
