In this paper we show that if X is a $$T_1$$ T 1 -space with a $$\pi $$ π -base whose elements have compact closure, then $$d(X)\le c(X)\cdot 2^{\psi (X)}$$ d ( X ) ≤ c ( X ) · 2 ψ ( X ) and therefore, for such spaces we have $$d(X)^{\psi (X)} = c(X)^{\psi (X)}$$ d ( X ) ψ ( X ) = c ( X ) ψ ( X ) . This result allows us to restate several known upper bounds of the cardinality of a Hausdorff space X by replacing in them d(X) with c(X). In addition, we show that for such spaces X Šapirovskiĭ’s inequality $$d(X)\le \pi \chi (X)^{c(X)}$$ d ( X ) ≤ π χ ( X ) c ( X ) , which is known to be true for regular Hausdorff spaces, is also valid. In the case when the space X is in addition sequential or radial, we show that $$|X|\le 2^{c(X)}$$ | X | ≤ 2 c ( X ) . This result extends two theorems of Arhangel$$'$$ ′ skiĭ to the class of Hausdorff spaces with a $$\pi $$ π -base whose elements have compact closures. We also show that spaces with a $$\pi $$ π -base with elements with compact closures are $$\alpha $$ α -favorable in the Banach–Mazur game, which implies such spaces are Baire. It was shown in Bella et al. (Quaest Math 46(4):745–760, 2023) that if a Hausdorff space X has a $$\pi $$ π -base consisting of elements with compact closure, then $$|X|\le 2^{wL(X)t(X)\psi _c(X)}$$ | X | ≤ 2 w L ( X ) t ( X ) ψ c ( X ) . We give a variation of this result by showing $$|X|\le \pi \chi (X)^{wL(X)\textrm{ot}(X)\psi _c(X)}$$ | X | ≤ π χ ( X ) w L ( X ) ot ( X ) ψ c ( X ) for such a space X. Note that since $$wL(X)\textrm{ot}(X)\le c(X)$$ w L ( X ) ot ( X ) ≤ c ( X ) , this result is at least as good as that given by Sun (Proc Am Math Soc 104:313–316, 1988). We also give a possible improvement of the bound in Bella et al. (2023) by showing that $$|X|\le 2^{wL(X)wt(X)\psi _c(X)}$$ | X | ≤ 2 w L ( X ) w t ( X ) ψ c ( X ) for a Hausdorff space X with a $$\pi $$ π -base consisting of elements with compact closure. This uses the weak tightness wt(X) defined in Carlson (Topol Appl 249:103–111, 2018), which has the property $$\textrm{ot}(X)\le wt(X)\le t(X)$$ ot ( X ) ≤ w t ( X ) ≤ t ( X ) . We also show that if X is a Hausdorff homogeneous space with a $$\pi $$ π -base consisting of elements with compact closure (such spaces are locally compact), then $$|X|\le wL(X)^{wt(X)\pi \chi (X)}$$ | X | ≤ w L ( X ) w t ( X ) π χ ( X ) . This generalizes the result in Bella and Carlson (Monatsh Math 192(1):39–48, 2020) that if X is a homogeneous compactum, then $$|X|\le 2^{wt(X)\pi \chi (X)}$$ | X | ≤ 2 w t ( X ) π χ ( X ) .

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.
