Abstract

A space X is said to be cellular-Lindelöf if, for every family \(\mathcal U\) of disjoint non-empty open sets of X, there is a Lindelöf subspace \(L\subset X\), such that \(U\cap L \not = \emptyset \) for every \(U\in \mathcal U\). This class of spaces was introduced by Bella and Spadaro in 2007. In this paper, our main result is to show that the Pixley–Roy space \(\mathcal F[X]\) is cellular-Lindelöf if and only if it is CCC. We also establish a cardinal inequality for cellular-Lindelöf spaces which have a symmetric g-function. Some open questions are posed.
