Abstract

Given a space X, we will say that a class A of subsets of X is dominated by a class B if for any A ∈ A, there exists a B ∈ B such that A ⊂ . In particular, all (closed) discrete subsets of X are countably dominated (which we frequently abbreviate as w-dominated) if, for any (closed) discrete set D ⊂ X, there exists a countable set B ⊂ X such that D ⊂ . In this paper, we investigate the topological properties of spaces in which (closed) discrete subspaces are dominated either by countable subsets or by Lindelöf subspaces.
