Computation of inductive dimensions of product of compacta
There are several reasons to study dimension-like invariants: to get more information about spaces; to extend the class of spaces under investigation; to evaluate the classical dimensions, etc. M. Charalambous, A. Chigogidze, V. Filippov, J. Aarts, T. Nishiura, B. Pasynkov, S. Iliadis are a few to be mentioned in connection with these themes of research. The last works of V. V. Fedorchuk are connected with the problem of finding unifying approaches to the study of set-theoretical methods in the classical dimension theory and algebraic methods in the investigation of cohomological dimensions. In this paper the authors demonstrate how base dimension \(I\) can be used to compute the classical dimension Ind of products. \textit{B. A. Pasynkov} [Sov.
