Is there a set $S\subseteq [0,1]$ with $|S|=2^{\aleph_0}$ and distinct pairwise distances?

You can actually make $S$ a (copy of the) Cantor set. First a claim: if $[a_1,b_1]$, $[a_2,b_2]$, ..., $[a_n,b_n]$ is a finite set of intervals, ordered left-to-right ($b_1<a_2$, $b_2<a_3$, etc) then …

On the definition of a continuous function

The function $f$, defined by $f(0)=0$ and $f(x)=\sin\frac1x$ if $x\neq0$, is not continuous at $0$, but its graph is connected over every open interval that contains $0$. With a bit of work, shifting …

Condition for set of the type $\{(a,b)|a \in A, \ b = f(a)\}$ to have empty interior if $A$ ...

If the interior of $X$ were nonempty there would be nonempty open sets $U$ and $V$ in $L^1$ such that $U\times V\subseteq X$. But then $U\subseteq A$ shows that $A$ would have nonempty interior. Note …

Direct proof a property of hyperstonean spaces

I take it that the normal, self-adjoint functions are assumed to be continuous on their domains. In that case the functions $f+g$ and $f\cdot g$ are continuous on the dense open set $O=X\setminus(Z_f\ …
