Gonna do all the exercises in Munkres's Topology book
02:23
Also @leslietownes

@Jakobian failed my Topology course, but thanks for all the help :)
Wed 10:28
Ok, thank u

Gemini didn't work?

In other MES posts I've found the statement but with the additional hypotheses that X is sigma-compact.
Wed 01:26
My question here: is the statement true? If not, what would be a counterexample?
Wed 01:26
I've been searching in Google for a while but can't find anything related to this question:
If X is a locally compact space and U is an open subset of X, show that U is locally compact.

Thanks
Jul 16 00:42
Ok, I'll try to write it down
Jul 16 00:38
Yes
Jul 16 00:31
Ok
Jul 16 00:27
ok
Jul 16 00:27
Sorry, I was confusing notations
Jul 16 00:27
@Jakobian Oh I see

This subspace:


and well, if $Y$ is a subspace of $Z$, we say that $Y$ is a retract of $Z$ if there is a continuous map $r: Z \to Y$ such that $r(y) = y$ for each $y \in Y$.
Jul 16 00:25
But, should I embed Y in Z then?
Jul 16 00:25
Yes
Jul 16 00:18
That says to me "welcome to hell"
Jul 16 00:18
As a matter fact, the exercise has an *
Jul 16 00:17
Idk how to prove it
Jul 16 00:17
But
Jul 16 00:17
@Jakobian yeah

Ok, Munkres gave me this one:

Let $Y$ be a normal space. Then $Y$ is said to be an absolute retract if for every pair of spaces $(Y_0 , Z)$ such that $Z$ is normal and $Y_0$ is a closed subspace of $Z$ homeomorphic to $Y$, the space $Y_0$ is a retract of $Z$.
Jul 16 00:11
It is respectively the exercise 35.8 of Munkres Topology pearson new edition page 223
Jul 16 00:11
How can I prove that if Y is a normal space, then Y is an absolute retract iff Y has the universal extension property?

Fourier Analysis and Partial Differential Equations

Jul 14 02:51
But does anyone know or have a solutions manual for this book?
Jul 14 02:51
I'm not sure if it's the right place to ask

Hello

@Jakobian This link? tinyurl.com/cfqcvpc
Jul 11 00:33
@leslietownes Oh, I see
Jul 11 00:01
So yeah, I'm almost blind to that kind of spacing
Jul 11 00:01
Because, rn I can't read the latex format properly, only the latex code
Jul 11 00:01
@Jakobian Hmm I'm gonna practice then
Jul 11 00:01
Thanks again @leslietownes
Jul 11 00:01
Ok, I'll try to write it down
Jul 10 23:44
Tell me if there is something that's not clear
Jul 10 23:44
So I rewrite it to avoid confusion
Jul 10 23:44
@leslietownes I think in that case it's false
Jul 10 23:43
I need to find an homeomorphism

$
\begin{align*}
f: U_0 \to V_1,
\end{align*}
$

(where $U_0$ is an open neighborhood of the identity element $0$ in $(\mathbb{R}, +)$, and $V_1}$ is an open neighborhood of the identity element $1$ in $(\mathbb{S}^1 , \cdot )$),

such that:

$f(x+y) = f(x) \cdot f(y), \ \forall x,y \in U_0$ such that $x+y \in U_0$,

but the following condition doesn't follows:

$f^{-1}(z \cdot t) = f{-1}(z)+f{-1}(t), \ \forall z,t \in V_1$ such that $z \cdot t \in V_1$.
Jul 10 23:38
Give me a moment, and thanks for answering
Jul 10 23:37
@leslietownes Ok, I'll rewrite it then
Jul 10 23:37
I think that's why I didn't understand
Jul 10 23:37
The neighborhoods need not to be subgroups
Jul 10 23:36
I was wrong
