Feb 10, 2023 at 17:42 comment added Wlod AA @IosifPinelis, I’ll do it just for you -- I'll copy my comment, and will add one more observation (I am not in a situation where I can do a real search).
Feb 10, 2023 at 17:36 comment added Iosif Pinelis @WlodAA : Interesting. You might want to answer, with bibliographical details, the question at mathoverflow.net/questions/440625/…
Feb 10, 2023 at 17:33 comment added Wlod AA Historically, closed sets were before the open sets (I believe so). --#--#--#-- Also, notation F (for closed sets) comes from the French "Fermé"; then open G followed.
Feb 10, 2023 at 17:28 comment added Iosif Pinelis @WlodAA : I wondered, though, why a standard notation for open sets is $G$ and that for closed sets is $F$. I mean, $F$ precedes $G$ in the alphabet, whereas opens sets are usually introduced before closed ones.
Feb 10, 2023 at 17:21 comment added Wlod AA @IosifPinelis, yes, of course, "notation 𝐺 for closed sets is annoying" -- sorry for my misprint.
Feb 10, 2023 at 17:18 comment added Iosif Pinelis @WlodAA : Did you mean "notation $G$ for closed sets is annoying"?
Feb 10, 2023 at 17:09 comment added Wlod AA Notation G for open sets is annoying. Instead of F and G, you may have A and B.
