In topology , a clopenset a portmanteau of closed open set in a topological space is a set which is both open set open and closed set closed . That this is possible for a set is not as counter intuitive as it might seem if the terms open and closed were taken by their colloquial meaning as antonyms mathematically, they are not antonyms. A set is defined to be closed if its Complement set theory complement is open, which leaves the possibility of an open set whose complement is itself also open, making the first set both open and closed, and therefore clopen. Examples In any topological space X , the empty set and the whole space X are both clopen. ref cite book author Bartle, Robert G. coauthors ... line R .

Cylinder sets are particularly useful in providing the basis topology base of the natural topology of the product of a countable number of copies of a set.

In set theory , a hereditary set or pure set is a Set mathematics set all of whose elements are hereditary sets. That is, all elements of the set are themselves sets, as are all elements of the elements, and so on. For example, it is vacuously true that the empty set is a hereditary set, and thus the set math varnothing math containing only the empty set math varnothing math is a hereditary set. In formulations of set theory that are intended to be interpreted in the von Neumann universe or to express the content of Zermelo Fraenkel set theory , all sets are hereditary, because the only sort of object that is even a candidate to be an element of a set is another set. Thus the notion of hereditary set is interesting only in a context in which there may be urelement s. The inductive definition of hereditary sets presupposes that set membership is well founded relation well founded i.e., the axiom of regularity , otherwise the recurrence may not have a unique solution. However, it can be restated non inductively as follows a set is hereditary if and only if its transitive set Transitive closure transitive closure contains only sets. In this way the concept of hereditary sets can also be extended to non well founded set theories in which sets can be members of themselves. For example, a set that contains only itself is a hereditary set.

DISPLAYTITLE F sub sub set In mathematics, an F sub sub set said F sigma set is a countable union set theory union of closed set s. The notation originated in France with F for wikt ferm French ferm French language French closed and for wikt somme French somme French sum, union . In metrizable spaces, every open set is an F sub sub set. The complement of an F sub sub set is a G delta set G sub &delta sub set . In a metrizable space, any closed set is a G sub sub set. The union of countably many F sub sub sets is an F sub sub set, and the intersection of finitely many F sub sub sets is an F sub sub set. Examples Each closed set is an F sub sub set. The set math mathbb Q math of rationals is an F sub sub set. The set math mathbb R setminus mathbb Q math of irrationals is not a F sub sub set. In a Tychonoff space, each enumerable set is an F sub sub set, because a point math x math is closed. For example, the set math A math of all Point geometry point s math x,y math in the Cartesian plane such that math x y math is rational number rational is an F sub sub set because it can be expressed as the union of all the line mathematics line s passing through the origin mathematics origin with rational slope mathematics slope math A bigcup r in mathbb Q ry,y mid y in mathbb R , math where math mathbb Q math , is the set of rational numbers, which is a countable set.
