Injective spaces (Scott 1972, §1) #
Scott's §1 introduces injective T₀-spaces — those with the extension property
for
continuous maps along subspace embeddings — and shows the two-point Sierpiński
space is
injective, that injectivity is preserved by products and by retracts, and (the
embedding
theorem) that every T₀-space embeds in a power of the Sierpiński space.

The continuous retraction onto the subspace.
Instances For
Scott 1972, Corollary 1.6. Injective spaces are exactly retracts of powers of 𝕆.
Scott 1972, Corollary 1.7. A space is injective iff it is a retract of every super-space of which it is a subspace.
