𝒦-Borelian embeddings and images of Hausdorff spaces

Brenda MacGibbon

Vol. 94 (1981), No. 2, 369–378
Abstract

The following two questions are discussed in this article: (1) under what conditions is a Hausdorff space embeddable as a 𝒦-Borelian subset of some Hausdorff space; and (2) under what conditions is the Hausdorff 1 1 continuous image of a 𝒦-Borelian subset of a Hausdorff space a 𝒦-Borelian subset of some Hausdorff space containing it. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions in answer to question (1) in the case of a 𝒦σδ and necessary conditions for 𝒦-Borelian subsets of each class α if the containing space is a perfectly σ-normal 𝒦σ. Question 2 does not always have a positive answer as is shown by an example of a Hausdorff 1 1 continuous image of 𝒦-Borelian subset of a compact Hausdorff space which is not 𝒦-Borelian in any Hausdorff space containing it. In partial answer to question (2) necessary conditions on the domain and the range of the function are presented.
