Selections and weak orderability

Michael Hrušák; Iván Martínez-Ruiz;

Abstract:

We answer a question of van Mill and Wattel by showing that there is a separable locally compact space which admits a continuous weak selection but is not weakly orderable. Furthermore, we show that a separable space which admits a continuous weak selection can be covered by two weakly orderable spaces. Finally, we give a partial answer to a question of Gutev and Nogura by showing that a separable space which admits a continuous weak selection admits a continuous selection for all finite sets.
