Product selection-principle theorem for spaces of countable selection rank

About 19 years old · traced to

For a metric space XX, let tpS1(O,O)(X){\sf tp}_{{\sf S}_1(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{O})}(X) denote its associated selection-principle type, and suppose this type is countable. Let YY be a topological space. Here Sc(O,O){\sf S}_c(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{O}), Sfin(Ω,Ogp){\sf S}_{fin}(\Omega,\mathcal{O}^{gp}), and S1(Ω,Ogp){\sf S}_1(\Omega,\mathcal{O}^{gp}) are the selection properties appearing below.

Product selection-principle theorem. If YY has Sc(O,O){\sf S}_c(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{O}) and Sfin(Ω,Ogp){\sf S}_{fin}(\Omega,\mathcal{O}^{gp}), then X×YX\times Y has Sc(O,O){\sf S}_c(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{O}). If YY has Sfin(Ω,Ogp){\sf S}_{fin}(\Omega,\mathcal{O}^{gp}), then X×YX\times Y has Sfin(O,O){\sf S}_{fin}(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{O}). If YY has S1(Ω,Ogp){\sf S}_1(\Omega,\mathcal{O}^{gp}), then X×YX\times Y has S1(O,O){\sf S}_1(\mathcal{O},\mathcal{O}).

The result gives product-preservation statements for several covering and selection properties. The supplied text presents it as a conjecture-environment candidate, but does not establish its resolution status; the surrounding proof discussion suggests that the assertions may in fact be proved in the paper.
