Abstract
In this paper, we make several observations on cellular-Lindelöf spaces. We prove that in perfect spaces, the property of being cellular-Lindelöf is equivalent to the countable chain condition. Using this result, we prove that every cellular-Lindelöf first-countable perfect space has cardinality at most \({\mathfrak {c}}\) and obtain a regular example of a weakly Lindelöf non-cellular-Lindelöf space. We also prove that if X is a cellular-Lindelöf space then every discrete family of non-empty open subsets of X is countable. Finally, we prove that if X is a cellular-Lindelöf space with a symmetric g-function such that \(\cap \{g^2(n,x): n\in \omega \}=\{x\}\) for each \(x\in X\) then \(|X| \le 2^{ {\mathfrak {c}}}\).
