Sol:

Consider the topology on X  {a, b, c, d , e}

  {X,  ,{a},{a, b},{a, c, d },{a, b, c, d },{a, b, e}}
List the member of the relative topology  A on A  {a, c, e}
s.that
X  A=A , a  A  a , a, c, d   A= a,c

Question 2

Find the accumulation points of each set of real numbers.

I)

II) [a, b)

Sol:

Let N  1, 2,3,...

if x  N and  =0.5
then  x-0.5,x+0.5  does not contain a point of N different from 'x' .
so
x is not a limit point of N .

Now let x  N and  >0 is so small ,

then  x- ,x+  does not contain a point of N different from 'x' ,
therefore x is not limit point of N.
Hence N has no limit point
i.e N d  

Now find accumulation point of [a, b)

Every point p   a,b is a limit point of
closed open interval [a, b).
Because every open nghd with  >0
s.t  p- ,p+ 
contain a point of [a, b) different from p .
so set of all limit points of [a, b) is  a,b .
