On the selection of non-σ-finite subsets
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2010
Extract
Let A be a subset of a compact metric space Ω, and suppose that A has non-σ-finite h-measure, where h is some Hausdorff function. The following problem was suggested to me by Professor C. A. Rogers:
If A is analytic, is it possible to construct 2ℵodisjoint closed subsets of A which also have non-σ-finite h-measure?
At this level of generality the problem, like others which involve selection of subsets, appears to offer some difficulty. Here we prove two results which were motivated by it.
