Gδ
sets #
In this file we define Gδ
sets and prove their basic properties.
Main definitions #
-
IsGδ
: a sets
is aGδ
set if it can be represented as an intersection of countably many open sets; -
residual
: the σ-filter of residual sets. A sets
is called residual if it includes a countable intersection of dense open sets. -
IsNowhereDense
: a set is called nowhere dense iff its closure has empty interior -
IsMeagre
: a sets
is called meagre iff its complement is residual
Main results #
We prove that finite or countable intersections of Gδ sets are Gδ sets. We also prove that the continuity set of a function from a topological space to an (e)metric space is a Gδ set.
isClosed_isNowhereDense_iff_compl
: a closed set is nowhere dense iff its complement is open and denseisMeagre_iff_countable_union_isNowhereDense
: a set is meagre iff it is contained in a countable union of nowhere dense sets- subsets of meagre sets are meagre; countable unions of meagre sets are meagre

Dense open sets are residual.
Dense Gδ sets are residual.
A set is called nowhere dense iff its closure has empty interior.
Instances For
The empty set is nowhere dense.
A closed set is nowhere dense iff its interior is empty.
If a set s
is nowhere dense, so is its closure.
A nowhere dense set s
is contained in a closed nowhere dense set (namely, its closure).
A set s
is closed and nowhere dense iff its complement sᶜ
is open and dense.
Subsets of meagre sets are meagre.
An intersection with a meagre set is meagre.
A countable union of meagre sets is meagre.
A set is meagre iff it is contained in a countable union of nowhere dense sets.
