====== Metric Spaces (Notes) ====== {{ :notes:metric-space-notes.jpg?nolink&600|Metric Spaces (Notes)}} These are updated version of previous notes. Many mistakes and errors have been removed. These notes are collected, composed and corrected by [[::Atiq]]. These are actually based on the lectures delivered by Prof. Muhammad Ashfaq (Ex HoD, Department of Mathematics, Government College Sargodha). These notes are very helpful to prepare a section of paper mostly called Topology in MSc for University of the Punjab and University of Sargodha. These are also helpful in BSc. ^ Name |Metric Spaces (Notes) - Version 2 | ^ Author |[[::Atiq]] | ^ Lectures |Prof. Muhammad Ashfaq | ^ Pages |24 pages | ^ Format |PDF | ^ Size |275KB | ==== CONTENTS OR SUMMARY:==== * Metric Spaces and examples * Pseudometric and example * Distance between sets * Theorem: Let $(X,d)$ be a metric space. Then for any $x,y\in X$, $$\left| {\,d(x,\,A)\, - \,d(y,\,A)\,} \right|\,\, \le \,\,d(x,\,y).$$ * Diameter of a set * Bounded Set * Theorem: The union of two bounded set is bounded. * Open Ball, closed ball, sphere and examples * Open Set * Theorem: An open ball in metric space //X// is open. * Limit point of a set * Closed Set * Theorem: A subset //A// of a metric space is closed if and only if its complement $A^c$ is open. * Theorem: A closed ball is a closed set. * Theorem: Let (//X,d//) be a metric space and $A\subset X$. If $x \in X$ is a limit point of //A//. Then every open ball $B(x;r)$ with centre //x// contain an infinite numbers of point of //A//. * Closure of a Set * Dense Set * Countable Set * Separable Space * Theorem: Let (//X,d//) be a metric space, $A \subset X$ is dense if and only if //A// has non-empty intersection with any open subset of //X//. * Neighbourhood of a Point * Interior Point * Continuity * Theorem: $f:(X,d)\to (Y,d')$ is continuous at $x_0\in X$ if and only if $f^{-1}(G)$ is open is //X//. wherever //G// is open in //Y//. * Convergence of Sequence * Theorem: If $(x_n)$ is converges then limit of $(x_n)$ is unique. * Theorem: (i) A convergent sequence is bounded. (ii) ii) If ${x_n}\to x$ and ${y_n}\to y$ then $d(x_n,y_n)\to d(x,y)$. * Cauchy Sequence * Theorem: A convergent sequence in a metric space (//X,d//) is Cauchy. * Subsequence * Theorem: (i) Let $(x_n)$ be a Cauchy sequence in (//X,d//), then $(x_n)$ converges to a point $x\in X$ if and only if $(x_n)$ has a convergent subsequence $\left(x_{n_k}\right)$ which converges to $x\in X$. * (ii) If $(x_n)$ converges to $x\in X$, then every subsequence $\left(x_{n_k}\right)$ also converges to $x\in X$. * Theorem: Let (//X,d//) be a metric space and $M \subseteq X$. (i) Then $x\in\overline{M}$ if and only if there is a sequence $(x_n)$ in //M// such that $x_n\to x$. (ii) If for any sequence $(x_n)$ in //M//, ${x_n}\to x\quad\Rightarrow\quad x\in M$, then //M// is closed. * Complete Space * Subspace * Theorem: A subspace of a complete metric space (//X,d//) is complete if and only if //Y// is closed in //X//. * Nested Sequence * Theorem (Cantor’s Intersection Theorem): A metric space (//X,d//) is complete if and only if every nested sequence of non-empty closed subset of //X//, whose diameter tends to zero, has a non-empty intersection. * Complete Space (Examples) * Theorem: The real line is complete. * Theorem: The Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ is complete. * Theorem: The space $l^{\infty}$ is complete. * Theorem: The space **C** of all convergent sequence of complex number is complete. * Theorem: The space $l^p,p\ge1$ is a real number, is complete. * Theorem: The space **C**[a, b] is complete. * Theorem: If $(X,d_1)$ and $\left(Y,d_2\right)$ are complete then $X\times Y$ is complete. * Theorem: $f:\left(X,d\right)\to\left(Y,d'\right)$ is continuous at $x_0\in X$ if and only if $x_n\to x$ implies $f(x_n)\to f(x_0)$. * Rare (or nowhere dense in //X//) * Meager (or of the first category) * Non-meager (or of the second category) * Bair’s Category Theorem: If $X\ne\phi$ is complete then it is non-meager in itself "OR" A complete metric space is of second category. ==== Download or View online ==== * **{{ :notes:metric-spaces-notes-v2.pdf |Download PDF}}** | View Online {{gview noreference>:notes:metric-spaces-notes-v2.pdf}} ====There are other notes on the Metric Spaces==== {{topic>Metric_Space&nouser&simplelist}} {{tag>BS MSc Notes Metric_Space}}
