Seminar & Colloquium Schedule (1999)
August 9 - August 15
Set Theory and Topology Seminar:
If every closed discrete
subspace in a locally compact Hausdorff space is countable, then
either the space is actually the countable union of
spaces in which every closed discrete subspace is finite, or
there is a countable subset of the space whose closure is so big
that it cannot be covered by countably many compact subsets.
