Totally disconnected and totally separated topological spaces

Main definitions

We define the following properties for sets in a topological space:

• IsTotallyDisconnected: all of its connected components are singletons.
• IsTotallySeparated: any two points can be separated by two disjoint opens that cover the set.

For both of these definitions, we also have a class stating that the whole space satisfies that property: TotallyDisconnectedSpace, TotallySeparatedSpace.

def IsTotallyDisconnected {α : Type u} [TopologicalSpace α] (s : Set α) : Prop
