 {b} is neither open nor closed

Example 5.7. The interval [0, 1] is compact in (R, Ostd). The one-element set containing (−1, 2) is a cover of [0, 1], but it is also a finite subcover and hence [0, 1] is compact from the definition.

It is clear that removing even one element from C will cause C to fail to be an open cover of R. Therefore, there is no finite subcover of C and hence, R is not compact.

Example

4.6

.

Let

M

=

{

a,b,c

}

and let

O

=

{

∅

,

{

a

}

,

{

a,b

}

,

{

a,b,c

}}

. Then

{

a

}

is open

but not closed,

{

b,c

}

is closed but not open, and

{

b

}

is neither open nor close

Incidence geometry - Wikipedia

Incidence geometry - Wikipedia: "Every triple of distinct points is incident with precisely one cycle.
For any flag (P, z) and any point Q not incident with z there is a unique cycle z∗ with P I z∗, Q I z∗ and z ∩ z∗ = {P}. (The cycles are said to touch at P.)
Every cycle has at least three points and there exists at least one cycle."

Homogeneous space - Wikipedia

Homogeneous space - Wikipedia: " Erlangen program, one may understand that "all points are the same", in the geometry of X. This was true of essentially all geometries proposed before Riemannian geometry, in the middle of the nineteenth century.

Thus, for example, Euclidean space, affine space and projective space are all in natural ways homogeneous spaces for their respective symmetry groups. "

Erlangen program - Wikipedia: "only the incidence structure and the cross-ratio are preserved under the most general projective transformations."

Why is group theory important?

Why is group theory important?: "we expect the laws of physics to be unchanging in time. This is an invariance under "translation" in time, and it leads to the conservation of energy. Physical laws also should not depend on where you are in the universe. Such invariance of physical laws under "translation" in space leads to conservation of momentum. Invariance of physical laws under (suitable) rotations leads to conservation of angular momentum. "
