Streszczenie
A space $X$ has a $\mathbb {Q}$-diagonal if $X^2\setminus \varDelta $ has a $\mathcal {K}(\mathbb {Q})$-directed compact cover. We show that any compact space with a $\mathbb {Q}$-diagonal is metrizable, hence any Tikhonov space with a $\mathbb {Q}$-diagonal is cosmic. This gives positive answers to two problems by Cascales, Orihuela, and Tkachuk (2011).
