Some observations on the mildly Menger property and topological games

Abstract

In this paper, we defined two new games - the mildly Menger game and the compact-clopen game. In a zero-dimensional space, the Menger game is equivalent to the mildly Menger game and the compact-open game is equivalent to the compact-clopen game. An example is given for a space on which the mildly Menger game is undetermined. Also we introduced a new game namely K-quasi-component-clopen game and proved that this game is equivalent to the compact-clopen game. Then we proved that if a topological space is a union of countably many quasi-components of compact sets, then TWO has a winning strategy in the mildly Menger game.
