We show that it is consistent with the Continuum Hypothesis that first countable, countably compact spaces with no uncountable free sequences are compact. As a consequence, we get that CH does not imply the existence of a perfectly normal, countably compact, non-compact space, answering a question o

In this paper we construct, in response to a question of Arhangel'skiว, a zero-dimensional first countable space which cannot be embedded into a normal first countable space.
The problem to embed a space into a first countable H-closed like space is considered. As a consequence, it is shown that no upper bound exists either for the cardinality of a first countable almost Lindelof space or for the cardinality of an H-set contained in a first countable Hausdorff space.
Let (XJF-1 be a sequence of infinite-dimensional BANACH spaces. We prove that 00 @ X, has a non-locally complete quotient if XI is not quasi-reflexive.
