Subject: Re:Question From: adel george Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 05:56:14 -0800 (PST) To: dmd1@lehigh.edu From:Dr.George,Adel A. I have the following 2 questions,please post it: 1. Let Y be the inverse limit of the topological spaces X(i) where the connecting maps are fibrations .Let A(i):X(i)--->X be fibrations for all i that induce a map A:Y--->X.ALL the maps have locally compact fibers.Is A a fibration?(fibrations are Hurewitz fibrations). 2. Let Y be the inverse limit of the paracompact spaces X(i) where the connecting maps are perfect (=closed with compact fibers)surjections.If the covering dimension (=dim)for all X(i) is >n,I wish to show that dimY>n.Is this known? where can I find a proof? Are there some set theoretic conditions that insure that an inverse limit is non-empty other than the familiar 2 conditions stated in Bourbaki "Set Theory"?
