## The S-space problem, and the cardinal invariant $\mathfrak p$

Recall that an $S$-space is a regular hereditarily separable topological space which is not hereditarily Lindelöf. Do they exist? Consistently, yes. However, Szentmiklóssy proved that compact $S$-spaces do not exist, assuming Martin’s Axiom. Pushing this further, Todorcevic later proved that … Continue reading

## On topological spaces of singular density and minimal weight

Abstract: We introduce a weakening of the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis, which we will refer to as the Prevalent Singular cardinals Hypothesis (PSH), and show it implies that every topological space of density and weight $\aleph_{\omega_1}$ is not hereditarily Lindelöf. The assumption … Continue reading

## Infinite Combinatorial Topology

Back in 2005, as a master student, I attended a course by Boaz Tsaban, entitled “Infinite Combinatorial Topology”. A friend and I decided to produce lecture notes, but in a somewhat loose sense, that is: we sometimes omit material given … Continue reading
