Abstract.It is known that all subspaces of ω 2 1 have the property that every pair of disjoint closed sets can be separated by disjoint G δ -sets (see [4]). It has been conjectured that all subspaces of ω n 1 also have this property for each n < ω. We exhibit a subspace of { α, β, γ ∈ ω 3 1 : α ≤ β ≤ γ} which does not have this property, thus disproving the conjecture. On the other hand, we prove that all subspaces of { α, β, γ ∈ ω 3 1 : α < β < γ} have this property.
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.
