Finite topological spaceIn 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.
Topologie de SierpińskiIn mathematics, the Sierpiński space (or the connected two-point set) is a finite topological space with two points, only one of which is closed. It is the smallest example of a topological space which is neither trivial nor discrete. It is named after Wacław Sierpiński. The Sierpiński space has important relations to the theory of computation and semantics, because it is the classifying space for open sets in the Scott topology.
Particular point topologyIn mathematics, the particular point topology (or included point topology) is a topology where a set is open if it contains a particular point of the topological space. Formally, let X be any non-empty set and p ∈ X. The collection of subsets of X is the particular point topology on X. There are a variety of cases that are individually named: If X has two points, the particular point topology on X is the Sierpiński space. If X is finite (with at least 3 points), the topology on X is called the finite particular point topology.
Connexité (mathématiques)La connexité est une notion de topologie qui formalise le concept d'« objet d'un seul tenant ». Un objet est dit connexe s'il est fait d'un seul « morceau ». Dans le cas contraire, chacun des morceaux est une composante connexe de l'objet étudié. Soit un espace topologique E. Les quatre propositions suivantes sont équivalentes : E n'est pas la réunion de deux ouverts non vides disjoints ; E n'est pas la réunion de deux fermés non vides disjoints ; les seuls ouverts-fermés de E sont ∅ et E ; toute application continue de E dans un ensemble à deux éléments muni de la topologie discrète est constante.
