Definition
A subspace Y of a space X is α-countably paracompact in X if for every countable collection U of open subsets of X with , there exists a collection V of open subsets of X such that , V is a partial refinement? of U and V is locally finite in X.
Remark
- It is not a property for topological spaces but subspaces.
