The cross-topology and Lebesgue triples
  The cross topology $\gamma$ on a product of topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ is the collection of all sets $G\subseteq X\times Y$ such that the intersection of $G$ with every vertical line and every horizontal line is an open subset of either vertical or horizontal line, respectively.   For spaces $X$ and $Y$ from a wide class, which includes all spaces $\mathbb R^n$, we prove that there exists a separately continuous mapping $f:X\times Y\to (X\times Y,\gamma)$ which is not a pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous functions. Also we prove that every separately continuous mapping is a pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous mappings, if it is defined on the product of a strongly zero-dimensional metrizable and a topological space and acts into a topological space.
