“…Let C b (X, E) denote the set of all bounded continuous mappings from X to E. Valov [22,Theorem 1.2] proved that the assumption in Theorem 1.1 that X is a k-space can be dropped if C(Y, E) and C(X, E) are replaced with C b (Y, E) and C b (X, E), respectively, or if E is a Banach space. His proof is based on the existence of a barycenter map introduced by Banakh [2] and that of a perfect Milyutin mapping due to Repovš, Semenov and Shchepin [18].…”
