Abstract:
A topological space $X$ is called irreducible if every open cover of $X$ has an open refinement which covers $X$ minimally. In this paper we show that weak $\bar \theta$-refinable spaces are irreducible. A modification of the proof of this result then yields that ${\aleph _1}$-compact, weak $\overline {\delta \theta }$-refinable spaces are LindelΓΆf. It then follows that perfect, ${\aleph _1}$-compact weak $\delta \theta$-refinable spaces are irreducible. A number of known results follow as corollaries.References
