Özet
We define, in a slightly unusual way, the rank of a partially ordered set. Then we prove that if X is a topological space and W = {W(x) : x is an element of X} satisfies condition (F) and, for every x is an element of X, W(x) is of the form boolean OR(i is an element of n(x)) W(i)(x), where W(0)(x) is Noetherian of finite rank, and every other W(i) (x) is a chain (with respect to inclusion) of neighbourhoods of x, then X is metacompact. We also obtain a cardinal extension of the above. In addition, we give a new proof of the theorem 'if the space X has a base B of point-finite rank, then X is metacompact', which was proved by Gruenhage and Nyikos.
