I made notes of some Chapters on LaTex. You can see the PDF here math104_notes.pdf. The organization of definitions and theorems is mainly based on Rudin, though supplemented by Ross. Sometimes I tried to rewrite the contents in a more symbolic way, so there maybe minor mistakes.
1. How is the definition of limit points related with the concept of limit?
Answer: An element is a limit point of iff. it is the limit of some inconstant sequence of points in . Inconstant is important because the definition of limit points includes hollow neighborhoods.
2. Suppose is an infinite subset of a set . Then has a limit point in iff. is compact. Prove this.
Answer: can be found in 2.37 Theorem of Rudin. can be found in Excercise 26 of Rudin Chapter 2.
3. If is a 1-1 continuous function on some interval , prove is continuous.
Answer: 1-1 continuous on an interval is strictly increasing or decreasing and continuous is continuous.
4. If is a 1-1 continuous function on an open interval , prove that is open.
Answer: According to Question 3, is continuous. We know that is continuous iff. for every open sets , is open. Since is open, we have is open. (I think there maybe some mistakes so that I may only get is open in which is useless through my approach. But this proposition cannot be wrong since it's a statement in the proof of Ross 29.9 Theorem)
Oh I See. We can first prove must be strictly montonic function and then is open.
