Abstract

We prove two results for the sequential topology on countable products of sequential topological spaces. First we show that a countable product of topological quotients yields a quotient map between the product spaces. Then we show that the reflection from sequential spaces to its subcategory of monotone ω-convergence spaces preserves countable products. These results are motivated by applications to the modelling of computation on non-discrete spaces.
