Abstract. A.V. Arhangel’skii [1] defines the notion of projective power of a Tychonoff space. In particular, the space X is projectively finite, if for any open continuous mapping f : X → Y onto metrizable separable space the image Y=f(X) is a finite set. The following results are obtained in this paper:
Теорема 1. There is a projectively finite metrizable space of the weight с=2N0 .
Теорема 2. For every cardinal number τ ≥ 2N0 there exists such a projectively finite Tychonoff space X, that any Tychonoff space of the weight ≤ τ is embeddable in X.
It follows from theorems 1 and 2 the existance of such a projectively finite space, that contains a non trivial convergent sequence. This is an affirmative answer to one of the question of A.V. Arhangel’skii [1].
Key words: projective finite space, metrizable space, open continuous mapping, connected space, separable space.
