Please solve 2.30, 2.32 and 2.34 in detail please.

Definition 2.29. Let X be a space. Let A be a subset of X. We say that a point x E X
is a sequential limit point of A iff there is a sequence {x;}1 in A\ {x} such that for every
open set U in X containing x, there is an I EZ+ such that U contains x; for all i > I.
Example 2.30. Let T be the topology on N which contains Ø, N, and for each N E N with
N > 0, the set {n E N | n N}U{0}. Verify that Ts is a topology. Describe the open
sets, closed sets, limit points of subsets, and sequential limit points of subsets of N with this
topology.

Exercise 2.31. Let X be a space. Let A be a subset of X. Let x be a sequential limit point
of A. Then x is a limit point of A.
Problem 2.32. Is there an example of a space X, a subset Y CX, and a point x E X
such that x is a limit point of Y, but not a sequential limit point of Y?
2.4. Subspace Topology. Sometimes we use a given topology on a set X to induce con-
veniently a topology on a subset of X.
Definition 2.33. Let X be a space with topology T and Y C X. T induces a topology TY
on Y, called the subspace topology on Y, given by
Ty := {V C Y |3U € T,V = UNY}.
Problem 2.34. Let E C N be the set of even natural numbers. Give N the topology Tad
(see Example 2.17). Describe the subspace topology on E.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Definition: Let X be a non empty set and τ be a collection of subsets of X. Then X, τ is said to be a topological space if it satisfies the following conditions:

  • Empty set and the whole set in τ.
  • Arbitrary union of sets of τ is also in τ.
  • Intersection of finite (or two sets) sets of τ is also in τ.

Let τs be the topology on  defined as follows

The empty set  is in the topology. The set of the form n | nN0 is also in the topology for every N in .

If N=1, the set will be n | n10, i.e.,

1, 2, 3, 4, 

If N=2, the set will be n | n20, i.e.,

 2, 3, 4, 

If N=10, the set will be n | n100, i.e.,

10, 11, 12, 13, 

Hence, if N is minimum the set will be larger.

Since τs contains the empty set and the whole set, it satisfies the first condition.
