Let X be a non-degenerate ordered set with the order topology. A non-degenerate set is a set with more than one
element.

Show the following:

(1) every open interval is open, (2) every closed interval is closed, (3) every open
ray is open, and (4) every closed ray is closed.

Please note: Its a topology question.

Let X be an uncountable set, let τf be the finite complement topology on X, and let τc be the countable complement topology; namely, we have τf ={U⊂X : X\U is finite}∪{∅}, τc={U⊂X : X\U is countable}∪{∅}, where “countable” means that the set is either finite or countably infinite (in bijection with the natural numbers). (a) What are the compact subspaces of (X, τf )? Are all compact subspaces closed in (X, τf )? (b) What are the compact subspaces...
