Abstract. This paper investigates the space C k (ω * , ω * ), the space of continuous self-maps on the Stone-Čech remainder of the integers, ω * , equipped with the compact-open topology. Our main results are that• Stone-Čech extensions of injective maps on ω form a dense set of weak P -points in C k (ω * , ω * ), • it is independent of ZFC whether C k (ω * , ω * ) contains P -points, and that • C k (ω * , ω * ) is not an F -space, but contains, as ω * , no non-trivial convergent sequences.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
