An Adaptation of the Vietoris Topology for Ordered Compact Sets

Jared Holshouser <jholshouser1321@gmail.com>, State of Vermont

Abstract:

We discuss a natural topology on powers of a space that is inspired by the Vietoris topology on compact subsets. We then place this topology in context with other product topologies; specifically, we compare this topology with the Tychonoff product, the box product, and Bell’s uniform box topology. We identify a variety of topological properties for the specific case when the ground space is discrete. When the ground space is the Euclidean real line, we show that the resulting power is not Lindelöf, and hence, not Menger. This shows that, unlike the the Vietoris topology on unordered compact subsets, covering properties of the ground space need not transfer to the Vietoris power.
