A contribution to the topological classification of the spaces Ср(X)

Abstract

We prove that for each countably infinite, regular space X such that $C_p(X)$ is a $Z_σ$-space, the topology of $C_p(X)$ is determined by the class $F_0(C_p(X))$ of spaces embeddable onto closed subsets of $C_p(X)$. We show that $C_p(X)$, whenever Borel,
