Metric Bookwork Flashcards
Definition of a metric
Positivity + 0 iff 0
Symmetry
Triangle inequality
Definition of norm
0 iff 0
||λx|| = λ||x||
||x+y|| <= ||x|| + ||y||
Prove product metric is a metric
Page 14
Definition of bounded
Contained in an open ball
Prove f continuous iff x->a => f(x)->f(a)
Page 18
Prove f continuous iff
{ ||f(x)|| : ||x||<=1 } is bounded
Page 18
Definition of isometry
Preserves distances
Definition of homeomomorphism
Continuous bijection with continuous inverse
Definition of open
Y open if for all y in Y there exists a ball around y contained in Y
Union and intersection laws for open and closed sets
Any union of open sets is open
A countable intersection of open sets is open
A countable union of closed sets is closed
Any intersection of closed sets is closed
Definition of a neighbourhood
N is a neighbourhood of z if there exists an open ball around z in N
Prove f is continuous at a iff the preimage of every neighbourhood of f(a) is a neighbourhood of a
Page 29
Prove f is continuous iff the preimage of every open set is open
Page 30
Prove if Y
Page 32
Define the interior of Y
Union of all open sets of X contained in Y
Define the closure of Y
Intersection of all closed sets of X that contain Y
Prove a in closure of S iff every open ball of a contains a point of S
Page 36
Prove a in closure of S iff there exists a sequence of S whose limit is A
In particular S is closd iff every convergent sequence of S has its limit in S
Page 36
Definition of a limit point
x is a limit point of S if All balls of x have a point in S other than x
S
Page 37
S closure = S U L(S)

Prove convergent sequences are cauchy, and cauchy sequences are bounded.
Provide counterexamples for the reverse implications
