1.- Prove the intermediate value theorem: let (X, τ) be a connected topological space, f: X - → Y a continuous transformation and x1, x2 ∈ X with a1 = f (x1), a2 = f (x2) ( a1 different a2). Then for all c∈ (a1, a2) there is x∈ such that f (x) = c. 2.- Let f: X - → Y be a continuous and suprajective transformation. Show that if X is connected, then Y too.
Let X be a topological space with topology T = P(X). Prove that X is finite...
Let X be a topological space with topology T = P(X). Prove that X is finite if and only if X is compact. (Note: You may assume you proved that if ∣X∣ = n, then ∣P(X)∣ = 2 n in homework 2, problem 2 and simply reference this. Hint: Ô⇒ follows from the fact that if X is finite, T is also finite (why?). Therefore every open cover is already finite. For the reverse direction, consider the contrapositive. Suppose X...
