Abstract:Abstract. This paper contains several new characterizations of arbitrary pseudocompact spaces, i.e. spaces characterized by the property that all continuous real-valued functions on the space are bounded. These characterizations parallel known characterizations of Hausdorff spaces including the useful and well-known result that a space Y is Hausdorff if and only if = a whenever and a are continuous functions on a common domain into Y which agree on a dense subset of the domain.
“…In this article, we give characterizations of pseudocompact spaces which are not necessarily completely regular 1) in terms of graphs of functions into the space, and 2) in terms of projections ; both of these -graphs and projections -are utilized in conjunction with the class M of zero-dimensional metric spaces to effect the characterizations. These characterizations parallel characterizations which have been found to be useful for compact spaces and characterizations which have been given recently for compactness generalizations [9]-[ll], [13]. Pseudocompact spaces which are not necessarily completely regular have been studied in [17].…”

In this note we give several new characterizations of arbitrary pseudocompact spaces, that is spaces characterized by the property that all continuous real-valued functions on the space are bounded.
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.
