# Connected box products of Hausdorff spaces

This is a follow-up on an older question.

Let $\Box_{i\in I} X_i$ denote the box product of the spaces $X_i$. Is there a Hausdorff space $(X,\tau)$ with $|X|>1$ such that $\Box_{n\in\omega}X$ connected?

• While this does not completely answer your question, theorem 1.3(iii) of Scott W. William's chapter "Box Products" (chapter 4) in Kunen & Vaughan's Handbook of Set Theoretical Topology (1984) states that the box product of an infinite family of non-discrete Hausdorff completely regular topological spaces is never connected. – Gro-Tsen Apr 11 '18 at 7:44
• Interesting - thanks for this hint! – Dominic van der Zypen Apr 11 '18 at 9:24
• @Gro-Tsen, Of course if $X$ has an isolated point then $\Box_{n\in\omega}X$ is not connected. It also seems to me that William only uses regularity of $X$ in the theorem that you mention. So one has to look only for connected Hausdorff non-regular spaces. – Ramiro de la Vega Apr 11 '18 at 23:39

If $X$ is the Irrational slope topology then the closures of any two non-empty open sets must intersect. It easily follows that $\Box_{n\in\omega}X$ is connected. Note that $X$ is Hausdorff but not regular. It seems (see the comments to the OP) that there are no $T_3$ examples.
