Multistage n-dimensional universal spaces and extensions

Let Iτ be the Tychonoff cube of weight τ⩾ω with a fixed point, στ and Στ be the correspondent σ- and Σ-products in Iτ and στ⊂(Σστ=ω(στ))⊂Στ. Then for any n∈{0,1,2,…}, there exists a compactum Unτ⊂Iτ of dimension n such that for any Z⊂Iτ of dimension⩽n, there exists a topological embedding of Z in Unτ that maps the intersections of Z with στ, Σστ and Στ to the intersections , and of Unτ with στ, Σστ and Στ, respectively; , and are n-dimensional and is σ-compact, is a Lindelöf Σ-space and is a sequentially compact normal Fréchet–Urysohn space. This theorem (on multistage universal spaces of given dimension and weight) implies multistage extension theorems (in particular, theorems on Corson and Eberlein compactifications) for Tychonoff spaces.
