Resovable maps preserve complete metrizability

colorful horizontal rule

Su Gao and Vincent Kieftenbeld


Abstract

Let X be a Polish space, Y a separable metrizable space, and f : XY a continuous surjection. We prove that if the image under f of every open set or every closed set is resolvable, then Y is Polish. This generalizes similar results by Sierpinski, Vainstain, and Ostrovsky.
