Zero-dimensional metrizable CDH space $X$ such that $X^2$ is not CDH

Abstract

In this paper a construction of a metrizable zero-dimensional CDH space $X$ such that $X^2$ has exactly $\mathfrak{c}$ countable dense subsets is provided. Furthermore, it is shown that the space can be constructed consistently co-analytic. Thus answering an open question asked by Medini. To do so we use the notion of $\lambda$-sets.
