On properties of h-homogeneous spaces of first category

AbstractA metric space X is called h-homogeneous if IndX=0 and each nonempty open-closed subset of X is homeomorphic to X. We describe how to assign an h-homogeneous space of first category and of weight k to any strongly zero-dimensional metric space of weight ⩽k. We investigate the properties of such spaces. We show that if Q is the space of rational numbers and Y is a strongly zero-dimensional metric space, then Q×Yω is an h-homogeneous space and F×Q×Yω is homeomorphic to Q×Yω for any Fσ-subset F of Q×Yω. L. Keldysh proved that any two canonical elements of the Borel class α are homeomorphic. The last theorem is generalized for the nonseparable case
