Abstract

In this paper we investigate the cohomological dimension of cohomologically locally connected compacta with respect to principal ideal domains. We show the cohomological dimension version of the Borsuk-Siecklucki theorem: for every uncountable family {K_α}_αεA of n-dimensional closed subsets of an n-dimensional ANR-compactum, there exist α ≠ β such that dim(K_α ∩ K_β) = n. As its consequences we shall investigate the equality of cohomological dimension and strong cohomological dimension and give a characterization of cohomological dimension by using a special base. Furthermore, we shall discuss the relation between cohomological dimension and dimension of cohomologically locally connected spaces.
