Abstract
A space is reversible if every continuous bijection of the space onto itself is a homeomorphism. In this paper we study the question of which countable spaces with a unique non-isolated point are reversible. By Stone duality, these spaces correspond to closed subsets in the Čech–Stone compactification of the natural numbers βω. From this, the following natural problem arises: given a space X that is embeddable in βω, is it possible to embed X in such a way that the associated filter of neighborhoods defines a reversible (or non-reversible) space? We give the solution to this problem in some cases. It is especially interesting whether the image of the required embedding is a weak P-set.
