Adalberto García-Máynez, Margarita Gary, Adolfo Pimienta

• Let (X, τ) be a topological space, we will denote by |X|,|X|K, |X|τ and |X|δ, the cardinalities of X; the family of compacts in X; the family of closed in X, and the family of Gδ-closed in X, respectively. The purpose of this work is to establish relationships between these four numbers and conditions under which two of them coincide or one of them is ≤ c, where c denotes, as usual, the cardinality of the set of real numbers R. We will use the Stone-Weierstrass theorem to prove that: Let (X, τ) be a compact Hausdorff topological space, then |X|δ ≤ |X|ℵ0
