Abstract

A connected Tychonoff space X X is called maximal Tychonoff connected if there is no strictly finer Tychonoff connected topology on X X . We show that if X X is a connected Tychonoff space and X ∈ { X\in \{ locally separable spaces, locally Čech-complete spaces, first countable spaces } \} , then X X is not maximal Tychonoff connected. This result is new even in the cases where X X is compact or metrizable.

This result is new even in the cases where X X is compact or metrizable.
