Abstract

In this paper, we give a characterization of collectionwise normality using continuous functions. More precisely, we give a new and short proof of the Dowker's theorem using selection theory that a $T_1$ space X is collectionwise normal if every continuous mapping of every closed subset F of X into a Banach space can be continuously extended over X. This is also a generalization of Tietze's extension theorem.
