Selection games on continuous functions

In this paper we study the selection principle of closed discrete selection, first researched by Tkachuk in [12] and strengthened by Clontz, Holshouser in [3], in set-open topologies on the space of continuous real-valued functions. Adapting the techniques involving point-picking games on X and C-p(X), the current authors showed similar equivalences in [ 1] involving the compact subsets of X and C-kappa(X). By pursuing a bitopological setting, we have touched upon a unifying framework which involves three basic techniques: general game duality via reflections (Clontz), general game equivalence via topological connections, and strengthening of strategies (Pawlikowski and Tkachuk). Moreover, we develop a framework which identifies topological notions to match with generalized versions of the point-open game. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
