Exercise · ZW-PRODUCT-TOPOLOGY-004 · ★☆☆ Basic
With \(S=\{0,1\}\) with open sets \(\varnothing,\{1\},S\) and \(T=\{a,b,c\}\) with open sets \(\varnothing,\{a\},\{a,b\},T\) and the projection \(\pi_1:S\times T\to S\), how many points does \(\pi_1^{-1}(\{1\})\) have?
Choose one option.
A \(1\) B \(3\) C \(2\) D \(6\)
Show answer
← Back to the question
Explanation \(\pi_1^{-1}(\{1\})=\{1\}\times T\) has 3 points and is open because \(\{1\}\) and \(T\) are; this is why \(\pi_1\) is continuous.
The topology on the product \(X\times Y\) of two spaces \((X,\mathcal{T}_X)\) and \((Y,\mathcal{T}_Y)\) that has as basis \(\mathcal{B}\) the sets \(U\times V\) with \(U\) and \(V\) open.
\[\mathcal{B}=\{U\times V:\ U\in\mathcal{T}_X,\ V\in\mathcal{T}_Y\}\]
