Ultraconnected space

In mathematics, a topological space is said to be ultraconnected if no two nonempty closed sets are disjoint. Equivalently, a space is ultraconnected if and only if the closures of two distinct points always have non trivial intersection. Hence, no T1 space with more than one point is ultraconnected. Every ultraconnected space is path-connected (but not necessarily arc connected). If and are two points of and is a point in the intersection , the function defined by if , and if , is a continuous path between and . Every ultraconnected space is normal, limit point compact, and pseudocompact. The following are examples of ultraconnected topological spaces. A set with the indiscrete topology. The Sierpiński space. A set with the excluded point topology. The right order topology on the real line.

A family of sets in the plane is simple if the intersection of any subfamily is arc-connected, and it is pierced by a line L if the intersection of any member with L is a nonempty segment. It is proved that the intersection graphs of simple families of com ...

Finite topological space

In mathematics, a finite topological space is a topological space for which the underlying point set is finite. That is, it is a topological space which has only finitely many elements. Finite topological spaces are often used to provide examples of interesting phenomena or counterexamples to plausible sounding conjectures. William Thurston has called the study of finite topologies in this sense "an oddball topic that can lend good insight to a variety of questions". Let be a finite set.

Sierpiński space

In mathematics, the Sierpiński space (or the connected two-point set) is a finite topological space with two points, only one of which is closed. It is the smallest example of a topological space which is neither trivial nor discrete. It is named after Wacław Sierpiński. The Sierpiński space has important relations to the theory of computation and semantics, because it is the classifying space for open sets in the Scott topology.

Particular point topology

In mathematics, the particular point topology (or included point topology) is a topology where a set is open if it contains a particular point of the topological space. Formally, let X be any non-empty set and p ∈ X. The collection of subsets of X is the particular point topology on X. There are a variety of cases that are individually named: If X has two points, the particular point topology on X is the Sierpiński space. If X is finite (with at least 3 points), the topology on X is called the finite particular point topology.
