Delta-generated topological spaces #
This file defines delta-generated spaces, as topological spaces whose topology is coinduced by all maps from euclidean spaces into them. This is the strongest topological property that holds for all CW-complexes and is closed under quotients and disjoint unions; every delta-generated space is locally path-connected, sequential and in particular compactly generated.

TODO #
- All locally path-connected first-countable spaces are delta-generated - in particular, all normed spaces and convex subsets thereof, like the standard simplices and the unit interval.
- Delta-generated spaces are equivalently generated by the simplices Δⁿ.
- Delta-generated spaces are equivalently generated by the unit interval I.
The topology coinduced by all maps from ℝⁿ into a space.

Instances For
The delta-generated topology is also coinduced by a single map out of a sigma type.
The delta-generated topology is at least as fine as the original one.
deltaGenerated
is idempotent as a function TopologicalSpace X → TopologicalSpace X
.
A space is delta-generated if its topology is equal to the delta-generated topology, i.e. coinduced by all continuous maps ℝⁿ → X. Since the delta-generated topology is always finer than the original one, it suffices to show that it is also coarser.

Instances
A map out of a delta-generated space is continuous iff it preserves continuity of maps from ℝⁿ into X.
A map out of a delta-generated space is continuous iff it is continuous with respect to the delta-generated topology on the codomain.

does in fact turn X
into a delta-generated space.
