Consider ℝ with the standard topology and the map f : ℝ → {–1, 0, 1} defined by:
f(x) = {–1 when x > 10; 0 when –10 ≤ x ≤ 10; and 1 when x < –10}.

Select each and every set that is an open sets in the quotient topology on {–1, 0, 1} (there are 3 out of 5).

A. {–1,0,1}

B. {0}

C. {0,1}

D. {–1}

E. {–1,1}

This is all that I have. This question is very confusing to me.

Define X = {0, 1} and T = {∅, {0}, X} . (a) Is X with topology T connected? (Hint: Use the clopen definition.) (b) Is X with topology T path-connected? (Hint: Construct continuous map f ∶ R → X. One way is to ensure f −1({0}) = (−∞, 0). Once you have f, consider f([a, b])—like f([−1, 1]) if you take my suggestion. Use the definition of path connected. )

Consider the function f defined on R by f(x) = ?0 if x ≤ 0, f(x) = e^(−1/x^2) if x > 0. Prove that f is indefinitely differentiable on R, and that f(n)(0) = 0 for all n ≥ 1. Conclude that f does not have a converging power series expansion En=0 to ∞[an*x^n] for x near the origin. [Note: This problem illustrates an enormous difference between the notions of real-differentiability and complex-differentiability.]
