Open full text 6 citations

Abstract

We prove that a countable regular space has a continuous selection if and only if it is scattered. Further we prove that a paracompact scattered space admits a continuous selection if each of its points has a countable pseudo-base. We also provide two examples to show that: (1) paracompactness can not be replaced by countable compactness even together with (collectionwise) normality, and (2) having countable pseudo-base at each of its points can not be omitted even in the class of regular Lindelöf linearly ordered spaces.
