Starting Context



Target Context


  • The reader will have a description and a proof of the proposition that for any topological space and any subset of any subspace, the closure of the subset on the base space contained in the subspace is the closure of the subset on the subspace.

Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(T'\): \(\in \{\text{ the topological spaces }\}\)
\(T\): \(\in \{\text{ the topological subspaces of } T'\}\)
\(S\): \(\subseteq T\)
\(\overline{S}^{T'}\): \(= \text{ the closure of } S \text{ on } T'\) such that \(\overline{S}^{T'} \subseteq T\)
\(\overline{S}^T\): \(= \text{ the closure of } S \text{ on } T\)
//

Statements:
\(\overline{S}^{T'} = \overline{S}^T\)
//


2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: apply the proposition that for any topological space and any subset of any subspace, the closure of the subset on the subspace is the intersection of the closure of the subset on the base space and the subspace.

Step 1:

By the proposition that for any topological space and any subset of any subspace, the closure of the subset on the subspace is the intersection of the closure of the subset on the base space and the subspace, \(\overline{S}^T = \overline{S}^{T'} \cap T = \overline{S}^{T'}\).
