Sequential space
In topology and related fields of mathematics, a sequential space is a topological space whose topology can be completely characterized by its convergent/divergent sequences. They can be thought of as spaces that satisfy a very weak axiom of countability, and all first-countable spaces (especially metric spaces) are sequential. In any topological space if a convergent sequence is contained in a closed set then the limit of that sequence must be contained in as well. This property is known as sequential closure.
Cocountable topology
The cocountable topology or countable complement topology on any set X consists of the empty set and all cocountable subsets of X, that is all sets whose complement in X is countable. It follows that the only closed subsets are X and the countable subsets of X. Symbolically, one writes the topology as Every set X with the cocountable topology is Lindelöf, since every nonempty open set omits only countably many points of X. It is also T1, as all singletons are closed.
Cauchy space
In general topology and analysis, a Cauchy space is a generalization of metric spaces and uniform spaces for which the notion of Cauchy convergence still makes sense. Cauchy spaces were introduced by H. H. Keller in 1968, as an axiomatic tool derived from the idea of a Cauchy filter, in order to study completeness in topological spaces. The of Cauchy spaces and Cauchy continuous maps is Cartesian closed, and contains the category of proximity spaces. Throughout, is a set, denotes the power set of and all filters are assumed to be proper/non-degenerate (i.
Meagre set
In the mathematical field of general topology, a meagre set (also called a meager set or a set of first category) is a subset of a topological space that is small or negligible in a precise sense detailed below. A set that is not meagre is called nonmeagre, or of the second category. See below for definitions of other related terms. The meagre subsets of a fixed space form a σ-ideal of subsets; that is, any subset of a meagre set is meagre, and the union of countably many meagre sets is meagre.
Sober space
In mathematics, a sober space is a topological space X such that every (nonempty) irreducible closed subset of X is the closure of exactly one point of X: that is, every irreducible closed subset has a unique generic point. Sober spaces have a variety of cryptomorphic definitions, which are documented in this section. All except the definition in terms of nets are described in. In each case below, replacing "unique" with "at most one" gives an equivalent formulation of the T0 axiom.
Spectral space
In mathematics, a spectral space is a topological space that is homeomorphic to the spectrum of a commutative ring. It is sometimes also called a coherent space because of the connection to coherent topos. Let X be a topological space and let K(X) be the set of all compact open subsets of X. Then X is said to be spectral if it satisfies all of the following conditions: X is compact and T0. K(X) is a basis of open subsets of X. K(X) is closed under finite intersections. X is sober, i.e.
Derived set (mathematics)
In mathematics, more specifically in point-set topology, the derived set of a subset of a topological space is the set of all limit points of It is usually denoted by The concept was first introduced by Georg Cantor in 1872 and he developed set theory in large part to study derived sets on the real line. The derived set of a subset of a topological space denoted by is the set of all points that are limit points of that is, points such that every neighbourhood of contains a point of other than itself.
Finite topological space
In mathematics, a finite topological space is a topological space for which the underlying point set is finite. That is, it is a topological space which has only finitely many elements. Finite topological spaces are often used to provide examples of interesting phenomena or counterexamples to plausible sounding conjectures. William Thurston has called the study of finite topologies in this sense "an oddball topic that can lend good insight to a variety of questions". Let be a finite set.
