If p and q are cardinal numbers and E is a topological space, then the following property may or may not hold:

Every cover of Eby fewer than q open sets has a subcover by fewer than pof them. (1)

Clearly these properties, for various numbers p and q, are far from being independent; in this paper, we investigate some of the interrelationships between them.
