# Math4201 Lecture 2
## Topology
Distance in $\mathbb{R}$, or more generally in $\mathbb{R}^n$. ([metric space](https://notenextra.trance-0.com/Math4111/Math4111_L9#metric-space))
Intervals in $\mathbb{R}$, or more generally open balls in $\mathbb{R}^n$. (topological space)
### Topological Spaces
#### Definition of Topological Space
A topological space is a pair of set $X$ and a collection of subsets of $X$, denoted by $\mathcal{T}$ (imitates the set of "open sets" in $X$), satisfying the following axioms:
1. $\emptyset \in \mathcal{T}$ and $X \in \mathcal{T}$
2. $\mathcal{T}$ is closed with respect to arbitrary unions. This means, for any collection of open sets $\{U_\alpha\}_{\alpha \in I}$, we have $\bigcup_{\alpha \in I} U_\alpha \in \mathcal{T}$
3. $\mathcal{T}$ is closed with respect to finite intersections. This means, for any finite collection of open sets $\{U_1, U_2, \ldots, U_n\}$, we have $\bigcap_{i=1}^n U_i \in \mathcal{T}$
The elements of $\mathcal{T}$ are called open sets.
The topological space is denoted by $(X, \mathcal{T})$.
#### Examples
Trivial topology: Let $X$ be arbitrary. The trivial topology is $\mathcal{T}_0 = \{\emptyset, X\}$
Discrete topology: Let $X$ be arbitrary. The discrete topology is $\mathcal{T}_1 = \mathcal{P}(X)=\{U \subseteq X\}$
Understanding all possible topologies on a set.
Let's say $X=\{a,b\}$
The trivial topology is $\mathcal{T}_0 = \{\emptyset, \{a,b\}\}$
The discrete topology is $\mathcal{T}_1 = \{\emptyset, \{a\}, \{b\}, \{a,b\}\}$
Other topologies:
$\mathcal{T}_2 = \{\emptyset, \{a\}, \{a,b\}\}$
$\mathcal{T}_3 = \{\emptyset, \{b\}, \{a,b\}\}$
Non-examples:
Let $X=\{a,b,c\}$
The set $\mathcal{T}_1=\{\emptyset, \{a\}, \{b\}, \{a,b,c\}\}$ is not a topology because it is not closed under union $\{a\} \cup \{b\} = \{a,b\} \notin \mathcal{T}_1$
#### Definition of Complement finite topology
Let $X$ be arbitrary. The complement finite topology is $\mathcal{T}\coloneqq \{U\subseteq X|X\setminus U \text{ is finite}\}\cup \{\emptyset\}$
The topology is valid because:
<details>
<summary>Proof</summary>
1. $\emptyset \in \mathcal{T}$ because $X\setminus \emptyset = X$ is finite.
2. Let $\{U_\alpha\}_{\alpha \in I}$ be an arbitrary collection such that $X\setminus U_\alpha$ is finite for each $\alpha \in I$.
Without loss of generality, we can assume that $U_\alpha \neq \emptyset$ for each $\alpha \in I$, since the union of arbitrary set with $\emptyset$ is the set itself.
If all of them are empty, then the union is empty, which complement is $X\subset \mathcal{T}$.
Otherwise,
$$
X\setminus \bigcup_{\alpha \in I} U_\alpha = \bigcap_{\alpha \in I} (X\setminus U_\alpha)
$$
is finite because each $X\setminus U_\alpha$ is finite. Therefore, $\bigcup_{\alpha \in I} U_\alpha \in \mathcal{T}$.
3. Let $\{U_1, U_2, \ldots, U_n\}$ be a finite collection such that $X\setminus U_i$ is finite for each $i=1,2,\ldots,n$.
Without loss of generality, we can assume that $U_i \neq \emptyset$ for each $i=1,2,\ldots,n$, since the intersection of arbitrary set with $\emptyset$ is $\emptyset$.
If all of them are empty, then the intersection is $X\subset \mathcal{T}$.
Otherwise,
$$
X\setminus \bigcap_{i=1}^n U_i = \bigcup_{i=1}^n (X\setminus U_i)
$$
is finite because each $X\setminus U_i$ is finite. Therefore, $\bigcap_{i=1}^n U_i \in \mathcal{T}$.
</details>
Another non-example is $\mathcal{T} = \{U\subseteq X|U \text{ is finite}\}\cup \{X\}$
The topology is invalid because an arbitrary union of points is not a finite set.
Consider $X=\mathbb{Z}$ but take $U_1=\{1\}, U_2=\{2\}, U_3=\{3\}, \ldots$
Then $\bigcup_{i=1}^\infty U_i = \mathbb{Z}^+$ is not a finite set and is not $\{X\}$.
> [!NOTE]
>
> If $X$ is finite, then finite complement topology is the same as the discrete topology.
#### Definition of Topology basis
For a set $X$, a topology basis, denoted by $\mathcal{B}$, is a collection of subsets of $X$, such that the following properties are satisfied:
1. For any $x \in X$, there exists a $B \in \mathcal{B}$ such that $x \in B$
2. If $B_1, B_2 \in \mathcal{B}$ and $x \in B_1 \cap B_2$, then there exists a $B_3 \in \mathcal{B}$ such that $x \in B_3 \subseteq B_1 \cap B_2$
