Abstract

A topological space X is said to be an Ascoli space if any compact subset K of Ck(Y) is evenly continuous. This definition is motivated by the classical Ascoli theorem. We study the kR-property and the Ascoli property of Cp(κ) and Ck(κ) over ordinals κ. We prove that Cp(κ) is always an Ascoli space, while Cp(κ) is a kR-space iff the cofinality of κ is countable. In particular, this provides the first Cp-example of an Ascoli space which is not a kR-space, namely Cp1). We show that Ck(κ) is Ascoli iff cf (κ) is countable iff Ck(κ) is metrizable.
