Exercise · ZW-TOPOLOGICAL-SPACE-001 · ★☆☆ Basic
Let \(X=\{1,2,3\}\) with the topology \(\mathcal{T}=\{\varnothing,X,\{1\},\{1,2\}\}\). Which of these sets is open?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- C. \(\{1,2\}\)
Explanation
The open sets are exactly the members of \(\mathcal{T}\); among the options only \(\{1,2\}\) belongs to that family.
Review the concept: Topological space
A topological space is a set \(X\) together with a topology \(\mathcal{T}\) on it; the members of \(\mathcal{T}\) are its open sets \(U\).
\[(X,\mathcal{T}),\qquad U\text{ open}\iff U\in\mathcal{T}\]
