Sorgenfrey line #

In this file we define SorgenfreyLine (notation: ℝₗ) to be the Sorgenfrey line. It is the real line with the topology space structure generated by half-open intervals Set.Ico a b.

We prove that this line is a completely normal Hausdorff space but its product with itself is not a normal space. In particular, this implies that the topology on ℝₗ is neither metrizable, nor second countable.

        Sorgenfrey line is a completely normal topological space. (Hausdorff follows as TotallyDisconnectedSpace → T₁)

        Any subset of an antidiagonal {(x, y) : ℝₗ × ℝₗ| x + y = c} is a closed set.

        theorem Counterexample.SorgenfreyLine.nhds_prod_antitone_basis_inv_pnat (x y : Counterexample.SorgenfreyLine) :
        (nhds (x, y)).HasAntitoneBasis fun (n : ℕ+) => Set.Ico x (x + (↑n)⁻¹) ×ˢ Set.Ico y (y + (↑n)⁻¹)

        The sets of rational and irrational points of the antidiagonal {(x, y) | x + y = 0} cannot be separated by open neighborhoods. This implies that ℝₗ × ℝₗ is not a normal space.
