Abstract

The symbol 𝓢c(X) denotes the hyperspace of all nontrivial convergent sequences in a Hausdorff space X. This hyperspace is endowed with the Vietoris topology. In the current paper, we compare the cellularity, the tightness, the extent, the dispersion character, the net weight, the i-weight, the π-weight, the π-character, the pseudocharacter and the Lindelöf number of 𝓢c(X) with the corresponding cardinal function of X. We also answer a question posed by the authors in a previous paper.
