Popis: In this expository paper, we show how the pressing down lemma and Ulam matrices can be used to study the topology of subsets of [math] . We prove, for example, that if [math] and [math] are stationary subsets of [math] with [math] stationary, then [math] and [math] cannot be homeomorphic. Because Ulam matrices provide [math] -many pairwise disjoint stationary subsets of any given stationary set, it follows that there are [math] -many stationary subsets of any stationary subset of [math] with the property that no two of them are homeomorphic to each other. We also show that if [math] and [math] are stationary sets, then the product space [math] is normal if and only if [math] is stationary. In addition, we prove that for any [math] , [math] is normal, and that if [math] is hereditarily normal, then [math] is metrizable.
