dont spam ping, but no, it's just the set of clusters

I’m sorry then

$$ x\in D(X) \Leftrightarrow x\in \mathrm{Cl}(X\setminus {x}) $$

#

But where do I start

#

By taking a point from D(A)?

molten stratus
#

the contrapositive is $A'\cup B'\not\subseteq (A\cup B)'$

X is in A U B

molten stratus
#

' is derived set

frank cradle
#

oh

#

I’m so confused

molten stratus
#

on?

#

cause 'im so confused' doesn't help either of us

frank cradle
#

if x doesn’t belong to D(A) or D(B) then it’s not a limit point

molten stratus
#

or, not and

#

but if x isnt in D(A)UD(B), then it's not in D(A) or in D(B)

#

hence there exists neighborhoods of x such that...?

fallow crane
# frank cradle I’m so confused

when you prove inclusion A subset B, you have two options:

  1. take x in A and show x in B
  2. take x notin B and show x notin A

you need to appeal to the notions of "derived set" and "set union" for this problem

frank cradle
fallow crane
#

are you asking or telling?

frank cradle
#

both

molten stratus
#

Yes, there exists a neighbourhood of $x$, $U_x$, such that $(U_x\cap A)\setminus{x}=\emptyset$

opal ivyBOT
#

Omegabet_

frank cradle
molten stratus
#

Likewise V_x for B

#

now consider $G:=U_x\cap V_x$. This is an open neighbourhood of $x$, and one (being you) can show that $(G\cap(A\cup B))\setminus{x}=\emptyset$

opal ivyBOT
#

Omegabet_

frank cradle
#

U_x and V_x are two neighborhoods?

molten stratus
#

yes

frank cradle
#

and G is the open set

#

that contain both

molten stratus
#

G is the intersection of the neighbourhoods provided to us by $x\not\in D(A)$ and $x\not\in D(B)$

opal ivyBOT
#

Omegabet_

molten stratus
#

ie unpacking the definition of not being a cluster point gives us these U_x and V_x for A and B respectively

#

I claim that G only intersects with AUB at x, which is now just an exercise in some set theory

fallow crane
# opal ivy **aL**

alternatively, apply this and the fact that closure of finite union is the finite union of closures

molten stratus
#

anyway I have to go study for a quiz, so maybe now aL can take over without being in the way

fallow crane

ty

frank cradle

#

sound good

frank cradle
#

and I haven’t revised closure yet so I can’t use it here until I get to that chapter

#

This is what we just talked about

frank cradle
frank cradle
fallow crane
#

this is confusing me

#

what do we assume?

#

are you proving the contrapositive?

frank cradle
fallow crane
#

a limit point of what?

frank cradle
frank cradle
fallow crane
#

alright, and you want to prove x is not a limit point of A union B

frank cradle
#

yes i guess

fallow crane
#

what does it mean x is not a limit point of X by the definition you are working with?

frank cradle
#

That x doesn’t belong to derived set A or B

fallow crane
#

how do you define derived set

frank cradle
fallow crane
#

, rotate

opal ivyBOT
fallow crane
#

ok so, put all of that together

#

"x is not a limit point of A"

there exists a neighborhood of x, call it V_x, such that

opal ivyBOT
frank cradle
#

it can also be phi

fallow crane
#

in that case

#

$$ V_x\cap (A\setminus {x}) = \emptyset $$

frank cradle
#

true

opal ivyBOT
fallow crane
#

so, now assume x is notin D(A) and x is notin D(B)

frank cradle
frank cradle
fallow crane
#

you have two neighborhoods of x now

frank cradle
#

so

#

Since they are not in the union

#

and not in them

fallow crane
#

write out what it means x is not a limit point of A union B

#

and figure out whether you have what you need for it

frank cradle
#

can we use complements

#

So we can change the union to intersection

fallow crane
#

play around with it, assume you have the following

#

$$ A_x \cap (A\setminus {x}) = \emptyset = B_x \cap (B\setminus {x}) $$

opal ivyBOT
frank cradle
#

I will go and think and tell you what I got

#

hopefully I will get it this time_catnerd

fallow crane
#

to show x is not a limit point of A U B, it suffices to find a neighborhood of x , C_x such that

#

$$ C_x \cap ((A\cup B)\setminus {x}) = \emptyset$$

opal ivyBOT
frank cradle
#

That c is closure ?

fallow crane
#

no

frank cradle
#

it’s another neighborhood

fallow crane
#

yes

frank cradle
#

We have three now

fallow crane
#

no, we have two

#

your task is to figure out how to obtain C_x from the assumptions you have

#

I only wrote out what it means by definition that x is not a limit point of A U B

#

i didn't claim it was actually true

frank cradle
#

okay so I’m thinking now

fallow crane
#

take your time

frank cradle
frank cradle
#

This what I got

frank cradle
fallow crane
#

don't write that, it's not always correct, that was my bad

#

stick to this version

frank cradle
#

Al but that is too complicated for me

#

If I don’t use the contrastive can I do it the normal way like this way

fallow crane
#

you can

#

assume x is a limit point of A U B, x is not a limit point of A and prove x is a limit point of B

frank cradle
fallow crane
#

, rotate

opal ivyBOT
fallow crane
#

that is correct

frank cradle
#

THANK YOU SO MUCH AL

#

YOU HELPED ME SO KYCH

#

much*

fallow crane
frank cradle
#

Just write down what was written

#

in the question

fallow crane
#

what do you think?

frank cradle
#

I think I should write therefore D(A U B)=D(A)UD(B)

fallow crane
#

the converse inclusion is obvious, so that works

frank cradle
#

so DONE?

#

again tysmmm Al you are so smart

fallow crane
#

you did all the work

#

im just chilling playing new vegas kekbusiness

frank cradle
fallow crane
#

something for a nerd like me kekbusiness

frank cradle
#

OOO

#

That is so attractive
