Topology generated by its restrictions to subsets #
We say that restrictions of the topology on X
to sets from a family S
generates the original topology,
if either of the following equivalent conditions hold:
- a set which is relatively open in each
s ∈ S
is open; - a set which is relatively closed in each
s ∈ S
is closed; - for any topological space
Y
, a functionf : X → Y
is continuous provided that it is continuous on eachs ∈ S
.
We use the first condition as the definition
(see RestrictGenTopology
in Mathlib/Topology/Defs/Induced.lean
),
and provide the others as corollaries.
Main results #
RestrictGenTopology.of_seq
: ifX
is a sequential space andS
contains all sets of the forminsert x (Set.range u)
, whereu : ℕ → X
is a sequence that converges tox
, then we haveRestrictGenTopology S
;RestrictGenTopology.isCompact_of_seq
: specialization of the previous lemma to the caseS = {K | IsCompact K}
.
If X
is a sequential space
and S
contains each set of the form insert x (Set.range u)
where u : ℕ → X
is a sequence and x
is its limit,
then topology on X
is generated by its restrictions to the sets of S
.
A sequential space is compactly generated.
If each point of the space has a neighborhood from the family S
,
then the topology is generated by its restrictions to the sets of S
.
A weakly locally compact space is compactly generated.
