In topology, a branch of mathematics, an extension topology is a topology placed on the disjoint union of a topological space and another set. There are various types of extension topology, described in the sections below. == Extension topology == Let X be a topological space and P a set disjoint from X. Consider in X ∪ P the topology whose open sets are of the form: A ∪ Q, where A is an open set of X and Q is a subset of P. Note that the closed sets of X ∪ P are of the form: B ∪ Q, where B is a closed set of X and Q is a subset of P. For these reasons this topology is called the extension topology of X plus P, with which one extends to X ∪ P the open and the closed sets of X. Note that the subspace topology of X as a subset of X ∪ P is the original topology of X, while the subspace topology of P as a subset of X ∪ P is the discrete topology. Being Y a topological space and R a subset of Y, one might ask whether the extension topology of Y - R plus R is the same as the original topology of Y, and the answer is in general no. Note the similitude of this extension topology construction and the Alexandroff one-point compactification, in which case, having a topological space X which one wishes to compactify by adding a point ∞ in infinity, one considers the closed sets of X ∪ to be the sets of the form: K, where K is a closed compact set of X, or B ∪ , where B is a closed set of X. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Extension topology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
