    The document is an assignment for an Introduction to Topology course covering 4 proof-based questions about topological spaces and metrics: it asks students to show two metrics induce the same topology; describe open balls in metric spaces; prove the equivalence of continuity definitions; and prove or find a counterexample about bijective continuous maps being homeomorphisms. Students are asked to complete 4 proofs relating to topological spaces and metrics for the assignment due on March 15 at 15:30.

    Introduction into Topology (Prof. Urs Frauenfelder)


    Assignment 1

    1. Let X be a set and d1 , d2 two metrics on X. Assume that there exists


    a real number c > 0, such that for all x, y ∈ X
    1
    d1 (x, y) ≤ d2 (x, y) ≤ cd1 (x, y).
    c
    Show that d1 and d2 induce the same topology on X.
    Pn
    2. (a) On Rn we consider the metric d(x, y) = kx − yk = i=1 (xi −
    yi )2 , x, y ∈ Rn . Show

    B1 (x) = {y ∈ Rn : d(x, y) ≤ 1} for x ∈ Rn .

    (b) Show that in a metric space (X, d) the inclusion

    B1 (x) ⊂ {y ∈ X : d(x, y) ≤ 1} for x ∈ X

    holds.
    (c) Find an example of a metric space for which the inclusion from
    (b) is strict.
    3. Assume that (X, dX ) and (Y, dY ) are metric spaces and f : X → Y is
    a map. Prove the equivalence of the following assertions
    (a) f : (X, OdX ) → (Y, OdY ) is continuous.
    (b) For every x ∈ X and every ε ∈ R, ε > 0, there exists δ ∈ R, δ > 0,
    such
    dX (x, y) < δ ⇒ dY (f (x), f (y)) < ε
    for all y ∈ X.
    4. Prove or find a counterexample of the following assertion: Let (X, OX ), (Y, OY )
    be topological spaces and let f : (X, OX ) → (Y, OY ) be a continuous
    and bijective map, then f is a homeomorphism.

    Due: March 15, 15:30.
