Order topology on a densely ordered set #
The closure of the interval (a, +∞) is the closed interval [a, +∞), unless a is a top
element.
The closure of the interval (a, +∞) is the closed interval [a, +∞).
The closure of the interval (-∞, a) is the closed interval (-∞, a], unless a is a bottom
element.
The closure of the interval (-∞, a) is the interval (-∞, a].
The closure of the open interval (a, b) is the closed interval [a, b].
The closure of the interval (a, b] is the closed interval [a, b].
The closure of the interval [a, b) is the closed interval [a, b].
The atTop filter for an open interval Ioo a b comes from the left-neighbourhoods filter at
the right endpoint in the ambient order.
The atBot filter for an open interval Ioo a b comes from the right-neighbourhoods filter at
the left endpoint in the ambient order.
Let s be a dense set in a nontrivial dense linear order α. If s is a
separable space (e.g., if α has a second countable topology), then there exists a countable
dense subset t ⊆ s such that t does not contain bottom/top elements of α.
If α is a nontrivial separable dense linear order, then there exists a
countable dense set s : Set α that contains neither top nor bottom elements of α.
For a dense set containing both bot and top elements, see
exists_countable_dense_bot_top.
