Main Body
1: Structured Description
Here is the rules of Structured Description.
Entities:
\(T'\): \(\in \{\text{ the topological spaces }\}\) induced by any metric, \(dist: T' \times T' \to \mathbb{R}\)
\(S\): \(\subseteq T'\)
\(T_1\): \(= S\) as the topological subspace of \(T'\)
\(T_2\): \(= S\) as the topological space induced by the metric subspace of \(T'\)
//
Statements:
\(T_1 = T_2\)
//
2: Proof
Whole Strategy: Step 1: take any open subset of \(T_1\), \(U \subseteq T_1\), and see that \(U\) is an open subset of \(T_2\); Step 2: take any open subset of \(T_2\), \(U \subseteq T_2\), and see that \(U\) is an open subset of \(T_1\).
Step 1:
Let \(U \subseteq T_1\) be any open subset of \(T_1\).
\(U = U' \cap S\) where \(U' \subseteq T'\) is an open subset of \(T'\), by the definition of subspace topology.
Let \(u \in U\) be any.
\(u \in U'\) and there is an open ball around \(u\), \(B'_{u, \epsilon} \subseteq T'\), such that \(B'_{u, \epsilon} \subseteq U'\), by the definition of topology induced by metric.
\(B_{u, \epsilon} := B'_{u, \epsilon} \cap S \subseteq T_2\) is an open ball in the metric subspace, \(T_2\), by the definition of metric subspace.
\(B_{u, \epsilon} \subseteq U' \cap S = U\).
As \(u \in U\) is arbitrary, \(U\) is an open subset of \(T_2\), by the definition of topology induced by metric.
Step 2:
Let \(U \subseteq T_2\) be any open subset of \(T_2\).
Let \(u \in U\) be any.
There is an open ball around \(u\), \(B_{u, \epsilon_u} \subseteq T_2\), such that \(B_{u, \epsilon_u} \subseteq U\), where \(\epsilon_u\) means that it depends on \(u\), by the definition of topology induced by metric.
\(B_{u, \epsilon_u} = B'_{u, \epsilon_u} \cap S\), by the definition of metric subspace.
Let us take \(U' := \cup_{u \in U} B'_{u, \epsilon_u} \subseteq T'\), which is an open subset of \(T'\), by the definition of topology induced by metric.
\(U = U' \cap S\), because for each \(u \in U\), \(u \in U' \cap S\); for each \(u' \in U' \cap S\), \(u' \in B'_{u, \epsilon_u}\) and \(u' \in S\), so, \(u' \in B'_{u, \epsilon_u} \cap S = B_{u, \epsilon_u} \subseteq U\).
So, \(U \subseteq T_1\) is an open subset of \(T_1\), by the definition of subspace topology.
