Comparison of product topology and colimit topology in sequence spaces

In Munkres Theorem 20.4 it is shown that the (relative) uniform topology induced by: $$ d(x,y)\triangleq \sup_{n \in \mathbb{N}} d(x_n,y_n) $$ is strictly finer than the product topology on $\prod_{n \...

What's "serialization" really called, and is there any theory surrounding it?

Define an operator $\mathop{\vec{\bigcup}}$ as follows: Definition. Whenever $A$ is an $I$-indexed family of sets, where $I$ is a totally-ordered set, we have $$\mathop{\vec{\bigcup}}_{i \in I} A_i ...

I remember when I first heard about nets in topology (called also Moore-Smith sequences). I was told that most of useful topological properties which can be exressed in terms of sequences in the ...

Does Cauchy continuity imply uniform continuity? [No.] [closed]

It is well known that if $X$ is a first countable topological space and $Y$ is a topological space, then $f : X \rightarrow Y$ is continuous iff $$\forall x \in {\rm map}(\mathbb{N},X),\forall p \in X ...
