Neighbourhood
Set
context | ⟨X,TX⟩ … topological space |
context | p∈X |
definiendum | Up∈it |
postulate | ∃(O∈TX). O⊆Up |
Discussion
A neighbourhood of p is a reasonably big set surrounding p.
Predicates
Consider X together with a topology, then
locally euclidean space means X is homeomorphic to Rn:
predicate | X … locally euclidean space ≡∀(x∈X). ∃(Ux∈Neighbourhood(x)), f. f∈Homeomorphism(Ux,Rn) |
topoloical manifold means Hausdorff space + locally euclidean space:
predicate | X … topoloical manifold ≡X … Hausdorff space, locally euclidean space |
