Metric spaces and open sets

Distance made abstract; open balls, open and closed sets, continuity.

A metric is any distance obeying symmetry, positivity and the triangle inequality. Open sets are unions of open balls; a function is continuous when preimages of open sets are open. No ε needed once the open sets are known. Picture it: the open disc around a point, and the same idea with the "taxicab" distance making diamonds. Think it: topology keeps the open sets and throws the metric away.

Distance between (1,2) and (4,6)

1,\ 2,\ 4,\ 6

Korak po korak

  1. \Delta x = 3,\ \Delta y = 4

    Differences of the coordinates.

  2. d = \sqrt{\Delta x^2 + \Delta y^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = 5

    Distance formula (Pythagoras).

Pitanja koja ljudi postavljaju

Why "a doughnut is a coffee cup"?

Each can be deformed into the other without cutting or gluing: one hole each. Topology studies exactly the properties such deformations preserve.

What is compactness for?

It is the property that makes "every sequence has a convergent subsequence" and "continuous functions attain their maximum" true. On the real line it means closed and bounded.
