文摘This paper investigates sober spaces and their related structures from different perspectives.First,we extend the descriptive set theory of second countable sober spaces to first countable sober spaces.We prove that a first countable T_(0) space is sober if and only if it does not contain a∏_(2)^(0)-subspace homeomorphic either to S_(D),the natural number set equipped with the Scott topology,or to S_(1),the natural number set equipped with the cofinite topology,and it does not contain any directed closed subset without maximal elements either.Second,we show that if Y is sober,the function space TOP(X,Y)equipped with the Isbell topology(respectively,Scott topology)may be a non-sober space.Furthermore,we provide a uniform construction to d-spaces and well-filtered spaces via irreducible subset systems introduced in[9];we called this an H-well-filtered space.We obtain that,for a T_(0) space X and an H-well-filtered space Y,the function space TOP(X,Y)equipped with the Isbell topology is H-well-filtered.Going beyond the aforementioned work,we solve several open problems concerning strong d-spaces posed by Xu and Zhao in[11].
