Ultraconnected Space
In mathematics, a topological space is said to be ultraconnected if no two nonempty closed sets are disjoint.PlanetMath 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.Steen & Seebach, Sect. 4, pp. 29-30 Properties Every ultraconnected space X is path-connected (but not necessarily arc connected). If a and b are two points of X and p is a point in the intersection \operatorname\\cap\operatorname\, the function f: ,1to X defined by f(t)=a if 0 \le t < 1/2, and if , is a continuous path between and .

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Topological Space
In mathematics, a topological space is, roughly speaking, a Geometry, geometrical space in which Closeness (mathematics), closeness is defined but cannot necessarily be measured by a numeric Distance (mathematics), distance. More specifically, a topological space is a Set (mathematics), set whose elements are called Point (geometry), points, along with an additional structure called a topology, which can be defined as a set of Neighbourhood (mathematics), neighbourhoods for each point that satisfy some Axiom#Non-logical axioms, axioms formalizing the concept of closeness. There are several equivalent definitions of a topology, the most commonly used of which is the definition through open sets, which is easier than the others to manipulate. A topological space is the most general type of a space (mathematics), mathematical space that allows for the definition of Limit (mathematics), limits, Continuous function (topology), continuity, and Connected space, connectedness.

Closed Set
In geometry, topology, and related branches of mathematics, a closed set is a Set (mathematics), set whose complement (set theory), complement is an open set. In a topological space, a closed set can be defined as a set which contains all its limit points. In a complete metric space, a closed set is a set which is Closure (mathematics), closed under the limit of a sequence, limit operation. This should not be confused with closed manifold. Sets that are both open and closed and are called clopen sets. Definition Given a topological space (X, \tau), the following statements are equivalent: # a set A \subseteq X is in X. # A^c = X \setminus A is an open subset of (X, \tau); that is, A^ \in \tau. # A is equal to its Closure (topology), closure in X. # A contains all of its limit points. # A contains all of its Boundary (topology), boundary points. An alternative characterization (mathematics), characterization of closed sets is available via sequences and Net (mathematics), net ...

Disjoint (sets)
In set theory in mathematics and Logic#Formal logic, formal logic, two Set (mathematics), sets are said to be disjoint sets if they have no element (mathematics), element in common. Equivalently, two disjoint sets are sets whose intersection (set theory), intersection is the empty set.. For example, and are ''disjoint sets,'' while and are not disjoint. A collection of two or more sets is called disjoint if any two distinct sets of the collection are disjoint. Generalizations This definition of disjoint sets can be extended to family of sets, families of sets and to indexed family, indexed families of sets. By definition, a collection of sets is called a ''family of sets'' (such as the power set, for example). In some sources this is a set of sets, while other sources allow it to be a multiset of sets, with some sets repeated. An \left(A_i\right)_, is by definition a set-valued Function (mathematics), function (that is, it is a function that assigns a set A_i to every ele ...

T1 Space
In topology and related branches of mathematics, a T1 space is a topological space in which, for every pair of distinct points, each has a neighborhood not containing the other point. An R0 space is one in which this holds for every pair of topologically distinguishable points. The properties T1 and R0 are examples of separation axioms. Definitions Let ''X'' be a topological space and let ''x'' and ''y'' be points in ''X''. We say that ''x'' and ''y'' are if each lies in a neighbourhood that does not contain the other point. * ''X'' is called a T1 space if any two distinct points in ''X'' are separated. * ''X'' is called an R0 space if any two topologically distinguishable points in ''X'' are separated. A T1 space is also called an accessible space or a space with Fréchet topology and an R0 space is also called a symmetric space. (The term also has an entirely different meaning in functional analysis. For this reason, the term ''T1 space'' is preferred. There is also a n ...

Path-connected
In topology and related branches of mathematics, a connected space is a topological space that cannot be represented as the union of two or more disjoint non-empty open subsets. Connectedness is one of the principal topological properties that distinguish topological spaces. A subset of a topological space X is a if it is a connected space when viewed as a subspace of X. Some related but stronger conditions are path connected, simply connected, and n-connected. Another related notion is locally connected, which neither implies nor follows from connectedness. Formal definition A topological space X is said to be if it is the union of two disjoint non-empty open sets. Otherwise, X is said to be connected. A subset of a topological space is said to be connected if it is connected under its subspace topology. Some authors exclude the empty set (with its unique topology) as a connected space, but this article does not follow that practice. For a topological space X the ...

Limit Point Compact
In mathematics, a topological space X is said to be limit point compactSteen & Seebach, p. 19 or weakly countably compact if every infinite subset of X has a limit point in X. This property generalizes a property of compact spaces. In a metric space, limit point compactness, compactness, and sequential compactness are all equivalent. For general topological spaces, however, these three notions of compactness are not equivalent. Properties and examples * In a topological space, subsets without limit point are exactly those that are closed and discrete in the subspace topology. So a space is limit point compact if and only if all its closed discrete subsets are finite. * A space X is limit point compact if and only if it has an infinite closed discrete subspace. Since any subset of a closed discrete subset of X is itself closed in X and discrete, this is equivalent to require that X has a countably infinite closed discrete subspace. * Some examples of spaces that are not limit ...

Pseudocompact Space
In mathematics, in the field of topology, a topological space is said to be pseudocompact if its image under any continuous function to R is bounded. Many authors include the requirement that the space be completely regular in the definition of pseudocompactness. Pseudocompact spaces were defined by Edwin Hewitt in 1948. Properties related to pseudocompactness * For a Tychonoff space ''X'' to be pseudocompact requires that every locally finite collection of non-empty open sets of ''X'' be finite. There are many equivalent conditions for pseudocompactness (sometimes some separation axiom should be assumed); a large number of them are quoted in Stephenson 2003. Some historical remarks about earlier results can be found in Engelking 1989, p. 211. *Every countably compact space is pseudocompact. For normal Hausdorff spaces the converse is true. *As a consequence of the above result, every sequentially compact space is pseudocompact. The converse is true for metric spaces. A ...

Indiscrete Topology
In topology, a topological space with the trivial topology is one where the only open sets are the empty set and the entire space. Such spaces are commonly called indiscrete, anti-discrete, concrete or codiscrete. Intuitively, this has the consequence that all points of the space are "lumped together" and cannot be distinguished by topological means. Every indiscrete space can be viewed as a pseudometric space in which the distance between any two points is zero. Details The trivial topology is the topology with the least possible number of open sets, namely the empty set and the entire space, since the definition of a topology requires these two sets to be open. Despite its simplicity, a space ''X'' with more than one element and the trivial topology lacks a key desirable property: it is not a T0 space. Other properties of an indiscrete space ''X''—many of which are quite unusual—include: * The only closed sets are the empty set and ''X''. * The only possible basi ...

Sierpiński Space
In mathematics, the Sierpiński space 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. Definition and fundamental properties Explicitly, the Sierpiński space is a topological space ''S'' whose underlying point set is \ and whose open sets are \. The closed sets are \. So the singleton set \ is closed and the set \ is open (\varnothing = \ is the empty set). The closure operator on ''S'' is determined by \overline = \, \qquad \overline = \. A finite topological space is also uniquely determined by its specialization preorder. For the Sierpiński space this preorder is actually a partial order and given by 0 \leq 0, \qquad 0 \leq 1, \qquad 1 \leq 1. Topol ...
